We describe the preparation of fluorinated microspheres by precipitation polymerization and their use to fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces. For that purpose, two different approaches have been employed. In the first approach, a fluorinated monomer (either 4-fluorostyrene or 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene) was added to the initial mixture of monomers constituted by styrene (S) and divinylbenzene (DVB). The second approach is based on the encapsulation of a block copolymer, polystyrene-b-poly(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorostyrene), during the polymerization of the monomers (S and DVB), thus enabling the formation of particles with pet-fluorinated chains instead of single functional groups it the interface. Both approaches led to narrow polydisperse particles with fluoro-functional groups at the interface is demonstrated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). infrared (IR) spectroscopy. and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (X PS). Surface array of particles obtained by simple solvent casting presented superhydrophobic behavior with contact angles of water droplets of ca. 160-165 degrees.Read less <
