Superhydrophobic Leaf Mesh Decorated with SiO2 Nanoparticle-Polystyrene Nanocomposite for Oil-Water Separation
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
Here, we report a novel and simple approach to fabricate crater-like superhydrophobic leaf mesh for oil-water separation. Nanocomposite of SiO2 and polystyrene (SiO2-PS) deposited on a naturally dried Tectona grandis leaf ...
Spray Deposition of PDMS/Candle Soot NPs Composite for Self-Cleaning Superhydrophobic Coating
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
The preparation of superhydrophobic coating using cheap candle soot nanoparticles (CS NPs) collected from candle flame is a very novel research topic. A less than 30 nm sized candle soot particles are collected by passing ...
Superhydrophobic PVC/SiO2 Coating for Self-Cleaning Application
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
A lotus leaf like self-cleaning superhydrophobic coating has high demand in industrial applications. Such coatings are prepared by alternative dip and spray deposition techniques. A layer of polyvinyl chloride is applied ...
Superhydrophobic PU Sponge Modified by Hydrophobic Silica NPs-Polystyrene Nanocomposite for Oil-Water Separation
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
In this study, the hydrophobic silica nanoparticles (NPs) are synthesized by simple sol–gel processing of polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS). The nanocomposite solution is prepared by adding hydrophobic silica NPs in polystyrene ...
Oil-Water Separation by ZnO-Based Superhydrophobic PU Sponges
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
Continuous oil–water separation is not only an important topic for scientific research but also for practical applications to clean oil from industrial oily wastewater and oil-spill pollution. In this work, polyurethane ...
Superhydrophobic Coating Using TiO2 NPs/PMHS Composite for Self-Cleaning Application
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2020 , Article)
In the present research work, spray deposition technique is adopted for the fabrication of superhydrophobic coating on glass slide using TiO2 nanoparticles and polymethylhydrosyloxane (PMHS) composite. The prepared ...
Sawdust-based superhydrophobic pellets for efficient oil-water separation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2020 , Article)
Severe water pollution by means of oil is the major issue worldwide. Emerging materials like superhydrophobic surfaces have shown immense potential to control this issue. Herein we utilized low-cost Sawdust-Polystyrene (SD ...
Self - cleaning superhydrophobic coatings: Potential industrial applications
