Higher water repellency caused by a reduced employment of low surface energy structures
Fluorine-containing random copolymers based on methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluoroalkyl acrylate (FAEA) have been prepared by solution polymerization. Super-hydrophobic surface was attained by casting the polymer solution from a fluorine-containing solvent at a constant temperature. The contact angles of water drops on the prepared surface were measured. SEM was adopted to detect the fine structures of the prepared polymeric surface. The mechanism of forming these films was studied.
