With the development of flexible electronics and wearable devices, there is strong demand for flexible, superhydrophobic, and multifunctional coatings. Motivated by the promise of attractive multifaceted functionality, various techniques have been developed to fabricate flexible surfaces with non-wetting properties. However, until now, there have been few reports on superhydrophobic surfaces with condensate microdrop self-propelling (CMDSP) functionality on a carbon nanotube film. Here, we used a facile electrodeposition method to develop for the first time a new type of flexible superhydrophobic surface with CMDSP functionality based on carbon nanotube films. These flexible CMDSP surfaces are robust after multiple cycles of bending of the film-coated substrate, i.e., without impacting the surface superhydrophobicity and CMDSP performance. The proposed light and flexible surface, combined with CMDSP, will support a novel generation of coatings that are multifunctional, flexible, smart, and energy saving. This new type of functional flexible interface not only opens new avenues in research into the fundamental structure–property relationships of materials, but also exhibits significant application potential for advanced technologies.

基于碳纳米管薄膜的具有凝聚微滴自推进功能的柔性超疏水表面

随着柔性电子和可穿戴设备的发展,对柔性、超疏水和多功能涂层的需求旺盛。在有吸引力的多方面功能的承诺的推动下,已经开发了各种技术来制造具有非润湿特性的柔性表面。然而,到目前为止,关于在碳纳米管薄膜上具有冷凝微滴自推进(CMDSP)功能的超疏水表面的报道很少。在这里,我们使用一种简便的电沉积方法,首次开发了一种基于碳纳米管薄膜的具有 CMDSP 功能的新型柔性超疏水表面。这些灵活的 CMDSP 表面在经过薄膜涂层基板的多次弯曲循环后仍然很坚固,,而不影响表面超疏水性和 CMDSP 性能。所提出的轻质柔性表面与 CMDSP 相结合,将支持新一代多功能、灵活、智能和节能的涂层。这种新型的功能性柔性界面不仅为材料基本结构-性能关系的研究开辟了新途径,而且在先进技术方面表现出巨大的应用潜力。
