The sample surface only needs to be simply treated with low-temperature atomized silicone oil and then laser-etched to obtain a high-adhesion super-hydrophobic surface. The operation is simple and easy to implement. In addition, a vortex tube is used to perform low-temperature treatment of the airflow to prevent the atomization effect from being affected in a high-temperature environment. The low temperature can maintain the shape of the atomized droplets, which is not easy to evaporate and diffuse quickly. The droplets can be evenly and stably deposited on the sample surface, and the laser etching effect is better. In addition, the silicone oil used is polydimethylsiloxane, which is a non-toxic and odorless item and has no health impact on the operator.
[0061] Moreover, the method of preparing a highly-viscosity super-hydrophobic surface by low-temperature atomized silicone oil pretreatment only requires a short period of low-temperature atomized silicone oil treatment, has high processing efficiency and good processing quality, has economic benefits, and can customize and improve the surface. Compared with the surface prepared by the silicone oil heat treatment method which only has hydrophobicity, this method can achieve a hydrophobic-hydrophilic coexistence surface by selectively performing laser treatment on the surface of the low-temperature atomized silicone oil. The prepared highly-adhesive super-hydrophobic surface can not only be used for liquid transportation, but also can achieve a slow flow effect due to its high adhesion, compared with the super-hydrophobic-super-hydrophilic surface prepared by traditional secondary laser.
[0062] In view of the use of the above-mentioned sample surface, the application of the method of preparing a highly viscous super-hydrophobic surface by low-temperature atomized silicone oil pretreatment in the present invention is proposed.
[0063] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an application of a method for preparing a high-viscosity super-hydrophobic surface by low-temperature atomized silicone oil pretreatment, which includes implementing the above-mentioned method for preparing a high-viscosity super-hydrophobic surface by low-temperature atomized silicone oil pretreatment to obtain a high-adhesion super-hydrophobic surface, which is applied to droplet transportation, drug delivery, and fog collection engineering.
[0064] Another beneficial effect of the present invention: high-adhesion superhydrophobic materials are widely used in the fields of droplet transport, drug delivery and fog collection engineering due to their unique wetting properties. In terms of droplet transport, high-adhesion superhydrophobic materials can achieve rapid, long-distance directional transport of droplets with extremely low volume loss along the way, which has an important driving effect on microfluidics, on-chip chemical synthesis, water collection, heat and mass transfer and other fields. In the field of drug delivery, high-adhesion superhydrophobic materials can be used as a carrier to control drug release and improve drug delivery efficiency and accuracy. In addition, this type of material is also used in fog collection engineering, which can promote water collection and is of great significance for water resource acquisition in arid areas.

[0119] In S27, the following formula is calculated by the corresponding mapping formula, v0 = f{Pa, A}, {Wa, Re, Ca} = f{η, ρ, σ, D, v0}, and the velocity v0, Weber number We, Reynolds number Re and gross coefficient Ca of the atomized droplets ejected from the nozzle 202 are obtained according to the following formula, so as to measure the atomization effect;
[0120]
[0121] Wherein, Q2 is the air flow rate, A is the nozzle diameter, η is the silicone oil viscosity, ρ is the silicone oil density, σ is the silicone oil surface tension, D is the average diameter of the atomized droplets, V0 is the nozzle ejection velocity, We is the Weber number, Re is the Reynolds number, and Ca is the capillary number;
[0122] In S28, the magnitudes of We, Re and Ca are determined according to the calculation results;
[0123] If We≥10, Re≥4000, and Ca≥1, the droplet is easy to break, deform, and spread, forming a thinner liquid film on the surface; otherwise, the droplet is stable and difficult to break, forming a rounded shape on the surface, slowly depositing, and spreading limitedly.
[0124] After step S2 is completed, step S3 is implemented, and step S3 includes sub-steps S31 to S33 in sequence:
[0125] In S31, a laser 400 is used. The laser 400 is selected as an ultraviolet nanosecond pulse laser, which is composed of a computer controller 401, a focusing lens 402, a reflector 403, and a laser light source 404. The preset parameters of the laser include laser scanning speed, laser scanning spacing, laser processing area, laser power, frequency, pulse width and spot diameter, such as Figure 6 As shown, d is the laser scanning distance, w is the spot diameter, the laser 400 is turned on, and the program value can be preset through the computer controller 401;
[0126] Turn on the switch of the laser 400, set the laser scanning path to a cross shape, draw a grid pattern on the computer controller 401 as a processing pattern, set the processing pattern size to a×b, in mm; and,
[0127] Wherein, the laser scanning speed is set to v, the laser scanning interval is set to d, the number of processing times is set to N, the laser power is set to E, the frequency is set to f, the pulse width is set to τ, and the spot diameter is set to w; and,
[0128] Place the sample 100 in the processing area, click the marking button to perform laser etching, the laser light source 404 outputs laser, and the laser is focused on the sample through the reflector 403 and the focusing lens 402 to perform etching, thereby preparing a surface microstructure;
[0129] In S32, most of the silicone oil, black matter generated by the laser processing of the silicone oil, and the cuttings generated by the laser processing of the sample 100 are cleaned with deionized water, and then the sample 100 is placed in a glass dish, anhydrous ethanol is poured into it, and then the glass dish is placed in an ultrasonic cleaning machine, and the cleaning time t4 is set, and a clean fine brush is used to remove the remaining silicone oil, residue, black matter generated by the laser processing of the silicone oil, and the cuttings generated by the laser processing of the sample. After cleaning, a drying oven is used to dry the surface of the sample 100 for a time of t2;
[0130] Among them, the cleaning method is a combination of deionized water, ultrasonic waves, anhydrous ethanol and a fine-bristle brush.
[0131] In S33, the wettability test is performed on the cleaned sample 100. The sample 100 is placed on a test platform. As the platform rises, the surface gradually approaches the droplet 300. After contact, it is squeezed to make full contact. Then, the platform is lowered to separate the droplet 300 from the syringe. The static contact angle θ of the surface of the sample 100 is measured using a contact angle meter.
[0132] After step S3 is completed, step S4 is implemented, and step S4 includes sub-steps S41 to S43 in sequence:
[0133] In S41, the size of the static contact angle θ is determined;
[0134] If θ is less than 150°, the operation process of S21 to S33 is repeated, wherein the hydrophobicity is improved by reducing the laser scanning speed v and the laser scanning spacing d in S31, that is, assuming that the laser scanning speed is 100 mm / s and the laser scanning spacing is 300 μm before, and the experiment is repeated under the condition of θ less than 150°, the laser scanning speed needs to be reduced to less than 100 mm / s, and the laser scanning spacing needs to be reduced to less than 300 μm;
[0135] If θ ≥ 150°, the surface is tested for adhesion.
[0136] In S42, the sample 100 is subjected to an adhesion test to measure the contact angle hysteresis of the surface, and the sample 100 in contact with the bottom of the droplet 300 is moved at a certain speed, and the shape of the droplet 300 becomes asymmetric;
[0137] Specifically, the sample 100 is placed on the test platform, and the surface gradually approaches the droplet 300 as the platform rises. After contact, it continues to be squeezed to make full contact, and then the platform is moved horizontally at a certain speed to make the bottom of the droplet 300 move continuously on the surface;
[0138] The measurement forms two different contact angles on both sides of the three-phase contact line, namely the advancing contact angle θ A and the receding contact angle θ R , the difference between the two contact angles is the contact angle hysteresis Δθ;
[0139] The contact angle hysteresis Δθ can indicate the difficulty of the liquid droplet 300 moving on the surface. The larger the value, the more difficult it is for the liquid droplet 300 to move, and also the stronger the adhesion of the surface.
[0140] In S43, the size of the contact angle hysteresis Δθ is determined; and,
[0141] If Δθ<30°, repeat the operation process of S21 to S42, wherein the viscosity η of the silicone oil in S21 is increased to improve the adhesion; and
[0142] If Δθ≥30°, the preparation is qualified and the operation is completed.

[0149] After cleaning, the surface of the titanium alloy plate was dried in a drying oven for 1 min.
[0150] Z2: Use an air compressor with a rated exhaust pressure of 0.8MPa to provide the air source. The micro-lubrication device 200 used is a FS-type quasi-dry external oil supply device produced by Fuji BC Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd., which has a maximum air pressure of 0.8MPa. After the gas is dried by the filter copper core 206, the air inlet pressure of the micro-lubrication device is within the range of 0.7MPa-0.8MPa by observing the pressure gauge Ⅰ and controlling the pressure knob Ⅰ, and the micro-lubrication device 200 is debugged;

[0156] The room temperature was measured at 34°C by a thermocouple thermometer, and room temperature atomization was performed. However, due to the evaporation or diffusion of droplet atomization, the uniformity of droplet deposition on the surface decreased, such as Figure 4 As shown on the left, low-temperature atomization is performed to improve the atomization effect.

The required air pressure exceeds the intake pressure tolerance range of the micro-lubrication device. The vortex tube is supplied with air in parallel, and the first air compressor 600 with an exhaust pressure of 0.8MPa is used to provide air pressure for the micro-lubrication device 200.
[0160] By observing the pressure gauge Ⅰ and controlling the pressure knob Ⅰ, the air inlet pressure of the micro-lubrication device is within the range of 0.7MPa-0.8MPa, adjusting the liquid flow knob 211, and setting the oil consumption to 5-9ml / min; adjusting the air flow control valve 210, and controlling the air flow to 70-80L / min. Use the second air compressor 700 with an exhaust pressure of 0.4MPa to supplement the air pressure lacking in the vortex tube, and the two gases are mixed in the T-tube, observing the pressure gauge Ⅱ and controlling the pressure knob Ⅱ, and making the air inlet pressure of the vortex tube 0.9MPa;
[0161] Rotate and adjust the temperature regulating valve of the vortex tube, and use a thermocouple thermometer to measure the temperature at 30mm radial of the nozzle to be 4°C;
[0162] Connect the pressure gauge and pressure valve to the nozzle, control the spray pressure to 0.4-0.5MPa, and perform low-temperature atomization. The atomization effect is as follows: Figure 4 Shown on the right.

[0165] The calculation results of the low-temperature atomized silicone oil in this embodiment are as follows: the Weber number ranges from 9250 to 14550, the Reynolds number ranges from 117900 to 147690, and the capillary number ranges from 74.9 to 93.7, which indicates that the flow, rupture and deformation behaviors of the droplets during the low-temperature atomization process are very significant, and a thin liquid film can be formed under the surface.
[0166]
[0167] Z7: Turn on the SJ-ZW05 ultraviolet nanosecond pulse laser 400, preset the program value through the computer controller 401, and set the scanning path to a cross shape;

[0169] Place the titanium alloy plate in the processing area, click the marking button for laser etching, the laser light source 404 outputs laser, and the laser is focused on the titanium alloy plate through the reflector 403 and the focusing lens 402 for etching to prepare the surface microstructure.
[0170] Z8: Use deionized water to clean most of the silicone oil, black matter generated by laser processing of silicone oil, and chips generated by laser processing of titanium alloy plate on the surface of laser-processed titanium alloy plate; then put the titanium alloy in an ultrasonic cleaning machine and use anhydrous ethanol as solvent to clean for 5 minutes (usually 5-10 minutes), and use a clean fine brush at the same time to remove the residual silicone oil, black matter generated by laser processing of silicone oil, and chips generated by laser processing of titanium alloy plate on the surface of titanium alloy plate;
[0171] After cleaning, use a drying oven to dry the surface of the sample for 1 min.
[0172] Z9: Perform wettability test on the cleaned titanium alloy plate. Place the titanium alloy plate on the test platform, squeeze the syringe to get a 5μl water droplet, and the surface gradually approaches the droplet as the platform rises;
[0173] After contact, continue to squeeze 0.2mm to make it fully contact, then lower the platform to separate the droplet from the syringe, and use SDC-100 contact angle meter to measure the surface contact angle of the titanium alloy plate, and the static contact angle θ of the surface is 155.0°.
[0174] Z10: Adhesion test of titanium alloy plate, measuring the contact angle hysteresis Δθ of the surface;
[0175] Place the titanium alloy plate on the test platform, squeeze the syringe to get a 5μl water droplet, and the surface will gradually approach the droplet 300 as the platform rises;
[0176] After contact, continue to squeeze 0.2mm to make it fully contact, then move the platform horizontally at a speed of 5mm / s to make the bottom of the droplet 300 move continuously on the surface, and measure the two different contact angles formed on both sides of the three-phase contact line, which are the advancing contact angle θ A and the receding contact angle θ R , the difference between the two contact angles, i.e. the contact angle hysteresis Δθ is 70.5°;
[0177] The contact angle hysteresis Δθ is greater than 30°, indicating that the surface has high adhesion.
[0178] Z11: Different methods are used to prepare the surface:
[0179] The first method is to directly undergo laser etching;
[0180] After cleaning the surface, its wettability and adhesion were tested. The static contact angle θ of the surface prepared by this method was 0, which showed super hydrophilicity and high adhesion.
[0181] The second method is to immerse the titanium alloy plate in a glass dish filled with silicone oil after laser etching, and perform heat treatment at a temperature of 150°C for 20 minutes. After cleaning the surface, its wettability and adhesion are tested. The static contact of the surface prepared by this method is 154.6°, and the surface is superhydrophobic. The contact angle hysteresis Δθ of the titanium alloy plate surface is measured to be 7.1°.
[0182] The contact angle hysteresis Δθ is less than 30°, and the surface does not have high adhesion.
[0183] The surface prepared using the method of this application has a surface contact angle of 155.0° and a contact angle hysteresis Δθ of 70.5°. The surface is both super-hydrophobic and highly adhesive.
[0184] Z12: X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) of the three surfaces;
[0185] Depend on Fig. 9 It can be seen that the surface processed by direct laser and the surface treated by silicone oil heat show hydrophilic titanium oxide and titanium, while the surface treated by low temperature atomized silicone oil shows only titanium;
[0186] The absence of hydrophilic titanium oxide on the surface is one of the reasons why the surface prepared by the present invention has super hydrophobicity.
[0187] Z13: X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of the three surfaces;
[0188] Depend on Fig.10 (a) It can be seen that the C1s peak and Si2p peak of the surface treated with low-temperature atomized silicone oil are significantly higher than those of the surface directly processed by laser and the surface treated with silicone oil; the Ti2p peak is significantly lower than the Ti2p peaks of the other two surfaces;
[0189] Further analysis, by Fig.10 (b) It can be seen that the CC group content of the surface directly processed by laser is 73.90%, the CC group content of the surface treated by silicone oil heat treatment reaches 81.49%, and the non-polar CC group content of the surface treated by low-temperature atomized silicone oil reaches 95.10%;
[0190] The CC group is a non-polar group. The lower the surface polarity, the stronger the hydrophobicity. The high content of CC groups on the surface is one of the reasons why the surface prepared by the present invention has super hydrophobicity.
[0191] Depend on Fig.10 (c) It can be seen that the surface O treated by low temperature atomized silicone oil 2-The content of metal oxide groups is 0%, which is much lower than that of the other two surfaces. 2- The group content further proves that the surface treated with low-temperature atomized silicone oil contains no hydrophilic titanium oxide;
[0192] Depend on Fig.10 (c) It can be seen that the SiO2 content of the surface treated with low-temperature atomized silicone oil is 30.11%, the content of the surface directly processed by laser and the surface treated with silicone oil heat is 3.29% and 0, respectively; SiO2 can form a strong interaction with polar molecules (such as water), thereby enhancing the adhesion of the surface treated with low-temperature atomized silicone oil.
