Superoleophobic Coatings with Ultralow Sliding Angles Based on Silicone Nanofilaments

Abstract

Superoleophobic surfaces were fabricated by using organosilanes. The surfaces feature high contact angles and ultralow sliding angles for various nonpolar liquids, excellent transparency, and chemical and environmental stability. The microstructure and superoleophobicity of the surfaces can be regulated simply by the water concentration in toluene used during the coating procedure.
