摘要

In this work, inspired by some typical creatures from nature with superhydrophobic surfaces, a bio-inspired antifogging PDMS is designed and fabricated successfully using UV lithography and a template method. First, we fabricated an SU-8 layer with a bio-inspired micro-pillared array (MPA) using traditional UV lithography. Then, it was used as a template to fabricate a PDMS film (PF). After that, it was chemically modified with SiO _(2) coatings. It was found that the PF coupled with sprayed SiO _(2) coatings and a MPA have a higher water contact angle (CA) of 158° and a lower contact angle hysteresis (CAH) of less than 2°. Water drops can be separated from this bio-inspired PDMS surface within 86.8 ms. More importantly, this film’s antifogging property is superior, with a recovery time of less than 13 s, which is significantly superior to that of the flat PF and the PF with the MPA. Afterwards, FTIR was applied to analyse the surface chemistry features and suggested that the bio-inspired PF has extremely low surface tension. So, it can be confirmed that an excellent superhydrophobic antifogging property has been achieved on the surface of the PF. Meanwhile, the microscopic and macroscopic dynamic movement behaviour of the fog drops was further observed. Then, the underlying antifogging mechanism was also revealed. These properties mainly benefit from the coupling effect of intermolecular attraction of droplets, chemical compositions (nanometre roughness SiO _(2) ) and the physical structures (MPA). The investigations offer a promising way to handily design and fabricate multiscale hierarchical structures on polymers and other materials. More importantly, these findings suggest great potential value for specific antifogging applications in display devices, transport, agricultural greenhouses, food packaging and solar products, especially in continuous harsh fogging conditions.
