3D coffee stain
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
When a liquid droplet (e.g., coffee, wine, etc.) is splattered on a surface, the droplet dries in a ring-shaped stain. This widely observed pattern in everyday life occurs due to the phenomenon known as a coffee stain (or ...
Wetting behavior of superhydrophobic poly(methyl methacrylate)
(Elsevier, 2018)
Superhydrophobic PMMA surfaces were prepared by spin-coating and doctor blade coating of PMAA/hydrophobic silica (1/10 by weight) dispersions in toluene onto glass substrates. Influence of the number of coating layers ...
Influence of the average surface roughness on the formation of superhydrophobic polymer surfaces through layer-by-layer spin-coating with hydrophobic fumed silica
(Elsevier, 2015)
Formation of superhydrophobic polymer surfaces were investigated through successive spin-coating of hydrophobic fumed silica dispersed in an organic solvent onto polymer films. Two different polymers, a hydrophobic segmented ...
Effect of filler content on the structure-property poly(ethylene oxide) based polyurethaneurea-silica nanocomposites
(Wiley, 2017)
Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) based polyurethaneurea‐silica nanocomposites were prepared by solution blending and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Differential Scanning ...
Fumed silica filled poly(dimethylsiloxane-urea) segmented copolymers: Preparation and properties
(Elsevier, 2011)
Novel fumed silica filled thermoplastic poly(dimethylsiloxane-urea) (TPSU) segmented copolymers were synthesized and characterized. TPSU copolymers were prepared from a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate, aminopropyl terminated ...
Effect of soft segment molecular weight on tensile properties of poly(propylene oxide) based polyurethaneureas
(Elsevier, 2012)
Influence of soft segment molecular weight and hard segment content on the morphology, thermomechanical and tensile properties of homologous polyurethaneurea copolymers based on narrow molecular weight poly(propylene ...
Synthesis and structureproperty behavior of polycaprolactone-polydimethylsiloxane-polycaprolactone triblock copolymers
(Elsevier, 2016)
Poly(ε-caprolactone)–polydimethylsiloxane–poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PDMS-PCL) triblock copolymers with a wide range of block lengths (1000–32,000 g/mol) were synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone ...
Polyurethaneurea–silica nanocomposites: Preparation and investigation of the structure–property behavior
(Elsevier, 2013)
Nanocomposites consisting of thermoplastic polyurethane–urea (TPU) and silica nanoparticles of various size and filler loadings were prepared by solution blending and extensively characterized by Fourier transform infrared ...
Influence of the coating method on the formation of superhydrophobic silicone–urea surfaces modified with fumed silica nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2015)
Effect of the coating method on the formation of superhydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane–urea copolymer (TPSC) surfaces, modified by the incorporation of hydrophobic fumed silica nanoparticles was investigated. Four different ...
Simple processes for the preparation of superhydrophobic polymer surfaces
(Elsevier, 2016)
Two simple processes; (i) spin-coating, and (ii) doctor blade coating of silica/polymer dispersions are described for the preparation of superhydrophobic polymer surfaces. To demonstrate the versatility and broad applicability ...
