The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of
fog water collecting mulching films, and particularly relates to a
fog water collecting mulching film and a preparation method and application thereof.The
fog water collecting mulching film is formed by spraying a super-hydrophobic layer on the surface of a flexible substrate, the super-hydrophobic layer is composed of the same
solid particles or different
solid particles with three different particle sizes, and after modification is conducted through a
silane coupling agent, the super-hydrophobic layer is prepared into the fog water collecting mulching film. The surface
contact angle of the super-hydrophobic substrate prepared by
doping low-surface-energy liquid and curing can reach 165 degrees or above, a conical structure is fixed on the surface of the super-hydrophobic flexible substrate by adopting a mechanical
assembly method, and the
fog collection efficiency can be regulated and controlled. The conical structure of the bionic
cactus is beneficial to capturing fog water and transporting water drops, the super-hydrophobic substrate is beneficial to rapid falling of the water drops, and efficient fog
water collection is achieved through cooperation of the bionic
cactus and the super-hydrophobic substrate. The mulching film can be recycled for multiple times and can replace a
conventional polyethylene mulching film, and environmental
pollution is reduced.
