Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of superhydrophobic materials, and particularly relates to a flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Superhydrophobic materials have many excellent properties, such as self-cleaning, corrosion prevention, and reduction of flow resistance, etc. These properties are due to their superhydrophobic surfaces. The so-called superhydrophobic surface refers to a class of material surfaces with a contact angle with water greater than 150° and a rolling angle less than 10°. Through research, it is found that there are two key factors for superhydrophobic surfaces: one is to have a micro-nano composite rough structure of a certain scale, and the other is to be modified with low-surface-energy substances on the basis of a certain roughness to reduce the surface energy of the material. Thus, it can be seen that preparing a superhydrophobic surface usually requires increasing the surface roughness and reducing the surface energy.
[0003] Currently, there are various methods for constructing superhydrophobic surfaces, such as chemical vapor deposition, chemical etching, sol-gel method, electrospinning method, layer-by-layer self-assembly method, spraying method, etc. Among them, in the spraying method, a superhydrophobic material is dissolved in a suitable solvent and sprayed onto the surface of an object by spraying to prepare a superhydrophobic coating. Currently, the superhydrophobic materials obtained by a simple spraying method usually have the defect of poor durability, and the surface structure is prone to fall off during application, resulting in the destruction of their superhydrophobicity. Therefore, how to obtain a superhydrophobic material with excellent durability is a research and development direction with market value. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of poor durability of superhydrophobic materials prepared by the spraying method and easy shedding of the coating, and to provide a flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material and a preparation method thereof. This method sprays a carboxylated carbon nanotube dispersion liquid on a substrate material, and the carboxylated carbon nanotubes form a nanoscale villous nanostructure covering the substrate material. Aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane forms a low-surface-energy layer on the surface, constructs a superhydrophobic surface, and improves the adhesion ability of the superhydrophobic surface on the substrate material through chemical bond connection between components, thereby improving the durability and fastness of the superhydrophobic material.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0006] A preparation method of a flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material, the method comprising the following steps:
[0007] Step 1: Place the substrate material in a plasma cleaner for treatment;
[0008] Step 2: Immerse the substrate material treated in Step 1 in an inositol 1,5-diphosphate solution for 30 - 60 min, and set aside;
[0009] Step 3: Disperse the carboxylated carbon nanotubes in the amino-propyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane. After heating to 40-50°C, add dihydroxyacetone to prepare a carbon nanotube dispersion.
[0010] Step 4: Take out the substrate material soaked in Step 2, spray the carbon nanotube dispersion prepared in Step 3 on its surface, and dry it.
[0011] Step 5: Heat-treat the product dried in Step 4 under normal pressure at a temperature of 110-120°C for 1-1.5 h, and cool it to obtain a flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material.
[0012] Further, in Step 1, the substrate material is one of polyester fiber cloth, silicone, PI film, or PET film.
[0013] Further, in Step 1, oxygen plasma treatment is used, with a treatment time of 5-10 min, a power of 100-200 W, a gas pressure of 0.1-0.3 Pa, a gas flow rate of 20-50 sccm, and the distance between the substrate material and the plasma source is 5-10 cm.
[0014] Further, in Step 2, in the inositol 1,5-diphosphate solution, the volume ratio of inositol 1,5-diphosphate to pure water is 1:70-90.
[0015] Further, in Step 3, the dispersion method uses an ultrasonic disperser for ultrasonic dispersion, with an ultrasonic power of 100-150 W, an ultrasonic treatment time of 30-60 min, an ultrasonic frequency of 20-40 kHz, the dispersion temperature is controlled at 40-50°C, the dispersion medium is ethanol or deionized water, ethanol or deionized water is used to dissolve and uniformly disperse the carboxylated carbon nanotubes, amino-propyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, and dihydroxyacetone, the stirring speed is 200-500 rpm, the diameter of the ultrasonic probe is 5-10 mm, and the intermittent ultrasonic mode is adopted, with the ultrasonic working for 5 minutes and resting for 2 minutes, and the cycle is carried out until the dispersion is completed.
[0016] Further, in Step 3, the mass-volume ratio of the carboxylated carbon nanotubes, amino-propyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, dihydroxyacetone to the dispersion medium is 1 g:70-80 g:0.01-0.015 g:50-100 mL.
[0017] Further, in Step 3, the diameter of the carboxylated carbon nanotubes is 10-200 nm.
[0018] Further, in step 3, a catalyst is also added. The catalyst is dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) or 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC); the mass ratio of the catalyst to the carboxyl group is 1:1. The catalyst is very effective in promoting the activation of carboxyl groups, making them more reactive towards the nucleophilic attack of amino groups and promoting the formation of amide bonds.
[0019] Further, in step 4, the spraying pressure is 0.3 - 0.4 MPa and the thickness is 0.5 - 1 mm; the drying temperature is 40 - 100 °C and the time is 2 - 4 h.
[0020] A flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material is prepared by using the preparation method described in any one of the above.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the excellent features of the present invention are as follows:
[0022] 1. For the flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material of the present invention, the substrate material is first subjected to oxygen plasma impact so that the surface of the substrate material has hydroxyl groups, and then immersed in inositol 1,5-diphosphate solution, so that inositol 1,5-diphosphate acts on the hydroxyl groups in the substrate material to fix inositol 1,5-diphosphate on the surface of the substrate material; moreover, carboxylated carbon nanotubes are dispersed in aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, and the carboxyl groups on the carboxylated carbon nanotubes can condense with the amino groups in aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane under the action of a catalyst, so that aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane is tightly connected around the carboxylated carbon nanotubes. Finally, the dispersion is sprayed on the substrate material by spraying, and the amino groups of aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane can condense with the phosphate groups of inositol 1,5-diphosphate, so that when the carboxylated carbon nanotubes are deposited on the surface of the flexible substrate, the aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane connected around them is fixed on the substrate by chemical bonding with inositol 1,5-diphosphate; thus, it can be seen that the present invention tightly combines the structures by multiple chemical bonds, improving the durability and fastness of the superhydrophobic material.
[0023] 2. For the flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material of the present invention, carbon nanotubes are used to form a nano-scale villous nanostructure deposited on the surface of the substrate material, and at the same time, aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane has a low surface energy, thus constructing a superhydrophobic surface.
[0024] 3. The flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material of the present invention uses aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane as a flexible polymer to enhance the structural strength, bringing excellent flexibility to the material, being able to withstand various deformations and recover its original shape at room temperature, and being able to be better applied to real life.
[0025] 4. Due to van der Waals forces and strong intermolecular interactions, carbon nanotubes tend to aggregate in solution. Dihydroxymethyl acetone stabilizes the dispersion of carbon nanotubes by preventing them from aggregating, ensuring that they remain evenly dispersed in the solution.

[0080]
[0081]
[0082] It can be seen from the above table that for the flexible microstructured superhydrophobic materials prepared in Examples 1-4 of the present invention, the surface static water contact angle remains above 150° after 200 bendings, and the rolling angle is less than 10°, indicating that it still maintains superhydrophobic performance. This proves that the flexible microstructured superhydrophobic material of the present invention has excellent durability.
[0083] Comparative Example 1 uses a commercially available PI film, which is untreated and does not have superhydrophobic performance.
[0084] Compared with the operation steps of the examples, the substrate material in Comparative Example 2 is not treated with oxygen plasma, resulting in poor adhesion of the superhydrophobic surface layer to the substrate material. After 100 bendings, the superhydrophobic surface is damaged.
[0085] Compared with the operation steps of the examples, Comparative Example 3 lacks the process of soaking the substrate material in inositol 1,5-diphosphate solution. Inositol 1,5-diphosphate plays a key role in connecting the upper and lower layers. Due to the lack, after 100 bendings, the superhydrophobic surface has been damaged.
[0086] Compared with the operation steps of the examples, in Comparative Example 4, polydimethylsiloxane is used instead of aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, resulting in a weakened bonding force between the carboxylated carbon nanotubes and the substrate material. After 100 bendings, the superhydrophobic surface is damaged.
[0087] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
