ACS APPLIED ENGINEERING MATERIALS 2024; 2:2219-2226. [PMID: 39205813 PMCID: PMC11348427 DOI: 10.1021/acsaenm.4c00381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2024] [Revised: 07/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/30/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Due to the pervasive use of oil for energy and other industrial applications, solutions to oil-water separation have received a great deal of attention lately to address the environmental damage of oil spills and groundwater contamination. However, many of these separation methods are materially expensive and environmentally hazardous, require elaborate fabrication, or rely on large amounts of energy to function. Herein, we provide an effective low-cost method for oil-water separation based on the hydrophobicity induced by self-assembled bioinspired diphenylalanine peptide nanowires grown on polyester fabric. This modified polyester fabric mesh exhibits parahydrophobicity and oleophilicity due to the hierarchical nano-to-microscale surface roughness. This mesh also achieves consistent high water separation efficiencies of over 99% and an ultrahigh oil flux of up to 26.7 ± 5 kLm-2·h-1. The growth of bioinspired peptide-based nanostructures on fabrics using facile technique and their application in oil-water separation presents the potential for using bioinspired materials for environmental remediation while minimizing environmental footprint.

Abstract
Multiscale nano/micro-structured surfaces with superhydrophobicity are abundantly observed in nature such as lotus leaves, rose petals and butterfly wings, where microstructures typically reinforce mechanical stability, while nanostructures predominantly govern wettability. To emulate such hierarchical structures in nature, various methods have been widely applied in the past few decades to the manufacture of multiscale structures which can be applied to functionalities ranging from anti-icing and water-oil separation to self-cleaning. In this review, we highlight recent advances in nano/micro-structured superhydrophobic surfaces, with particular focus on non-metallic materials as they are widely used in daily life due to their lightweight, abrasion resistance and ease of processing properties. This review is organized into three sections. First, fabrication methods of multiscale hierarchical structures are introduced with their strengths and weaknesses. Second, four main application areas of anti-icing, water-oil separation, anti-fog and self-cleaning are overviewed by assessing how and why multiscale structures need to be incorporated to carry out their performances. Finally, future directions and challenges for nano/micro-structured surfaces are presented.

Abstract
The increasing levels of water pollution pose an imminent threat to human health and the environment. Current modalities of wastewater treatment necessitate expensive instrumentation and generate large amounts of waste, thus failing to provide ecofriendly and sustainable solutions for water purification. Over the years, novel additive manufacturing technology, also known as three-dimensional (3D) printing, has propelled remarkable innovation in different disciplines owing to its capability to fabricate customized geometric objects rapidly and cost-effectively with minimal byproducts and hence undoubtedly emerged as a promising alternative for wastewater treatment. Especially in membrane technology, 3D printing enables the designing of ultrathin membranes and membrane modules layer-by-layer with different morphologies, complex hierarchical structures, and a wide variety of materials otherwise unmet using conventional fabrication strategies. Extensive research has been dedicated to preparing membrane spacers with excellent surface properties, potentially improving the membrane filtration performance for water remediation. The revolutionary developments in membrane module fabrication have driven the utilization of 3D printing approaches toward manufacturing advanced membrane components, including biocarriers, sorbents, catalysts, and even whole membranes. This perspective highlights recent advances and essential outcomes in 3D printing technologies for wastewater treatment. First, different 3D printing techniques, such as material extrusion, selective laser sintering (SLS), and vat photopolymerization, emphasizing membrane fabrication, are briefly discussed. Importantly, in this Perspective, we focus on the unique 3D-printed membrane modules, namely, feed spacers, biocarriers, sorbents, and so on. The unparalleled advantages of 3D printed membrane components in surface area, geometry, and thickness and their influence on antifouling, removal efficiency, and overall membrane performance are underlined. Moreover, the salient applications of 3D printing technologies for water desalination, oil-water separation, heavy metal and organic pollutant removal, and nuclear decontamination are also outlined. This Perspective summarizes the recent works, current limitations, and future outlook of 3D-printed membrane technologies for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Porous solid films that promote large apparent contact angles are interesting systems since their wetting properties are dependent on both the surface structure and water penetration into the film. In this study, a parahydrophobic coating is made by sequential dip coating of titanium dioxide nanoparticles and stearic acid on polished copper substrates. The apparent contact angles are determined using the tilted plate method, and it is found that the liquid-vapor interaction decreases and water droplets are more likely to move off the film when the number of coated layers increases. Interestingly, it is found that under some conditions, the front contact angle can be smaller than the back contact angle. Scanning electron microscopy observations demonstrate that the coating process led to the formation of hydrophilic TiO2 nanoparticle domains and hydrophobic stearic acid flakes that allows heterogeneous wetting. By monitoring the electrical current through the water droplet to the copper substrate, it is found that the water drops penetrate the coating layer to make direct contact with the copper surface with a time delay and magnitude that depends on the coating thickness. This additional penetration of water into the porous film enhances the adhesion of the droplet to the film and provides a clue to understand the contact angle hysteresis.

Abstract
In nature, millions of creatures, such as geckos, tree frogs, octopuses, etc., have evolved fantastic switchable adhesion capabilities to climb swiftly on vertical even inverted surfaces or hunt for prey easily, adapting to harsh and unpredictable environments. Notably, these fascinating adhesive behaviors depend on interfacial forces (friction, van der Waals force, capillary force, vacuum suction, etc.), which primarily originate from the interactions between the soft micro/nanostructures evolved in the natural creatures and objects. Over the past few decades, these biological switchable adhesives have inspired scientists to explore and engineer desirable artificial adhesives. In this review, we summarized the state-of-the-art research on the ultra-fast adhesive motion of three types of biological organisms (gecko, tree frog, and octopus). Firstly, the basic adhesion principles in the three representative organisms, including micro/nanostructures, interfacial forces, and fundamental adhesion models, are reviewed. Then, we discussed the adhesion mechanisms of the prominent organisms from the perspective of soft contacts between micro/nanostructures and the substrates. Later, the mechanics-guided design principles of artificial adhesive surfaces, as well as the smart adhesion strategies, are summarized. The applications of these bio-inspired switchable adhesives are demonstrated, including wearable electronic devices, soft grippers, and climbing robots. The challenges and opportunities in this fast-growing field are also discussed.

Abstract
Food consumption and waste elimination are vital functions for living systems. Although how feeding impacts animal form and function has been studied for more than a century since Darwin, how its obligate partner, excretion, controls and constrains animal behavior, size, and energetics remains largely unexplored. Here we study millimeter-scale sharpshooter insects (Cicadellidae) that feed exclusively on a plant's xylem sap, a nutrient-deficit source (95% water). To eliminate their high-volume excreta, these insects exploit droplet superpropulsion, a phenomenon in which an elastic projectile can achieve higher velocity than the underlying actuator through temporal tuning. We combine coupled-oscillator models, computational fluid dynamics, and biophysical experiments to show that these insects temporally tune the frequency of their anal stylus to the Rayleigh frequency of their surface tension-dominated elastic drops as a single-shot resonance mechanism. Our model predicts that for these tiny insects, the superpropulsion of droplets is energetically cheaper than forming jets, enabling them to survive on an extreme energy-constrained xylem-sap diet. The principles and limits of superpropulsion outlined here can inform designs of energy-efficient self-cleaning structures and soft engines to generate ballistic motions.

Abstract
Functional textiles with superhydrophobicity and high adhesion to water, called parahydrophobic, are attracting increasing attention from industry and academia. The hierarchical (micronanoscale) surface patterns in nature provide an excellent reference for the manufacture of parahydrophobic functional textiles. However, the replication of the complex parahydrophobic micronanostructures in nature exceeds the ability of traditional manufacturing strategies, which makes it difficult to accurately manufacture controllable nanostructures on yarn and textiles. Herein, a two-photon femtosecond laser direct writing strategy with nanoscale process capability was utilized to accurately construct the functional parahydrophobic yarn with a diameter of 900 μm. Inspired by rose petals, the parahydrophobic yarn is composed of a hollow round tube, regularly arranged micropapillae (the diameter is 109 μm), and nanofolds (the distance is 800 nm) on papillae. The bionic yarn exhibited a superior parahydrophobic behavior, where the liquid droplet not only was firmly adhered to the bionic yarn at an inverted angle (180°) but also presented as spherical on the yarn (the maximum water contact angle is 159°). The fabric woven by the bionic yarn also exhibited liquid droplet-catching ability even when tilted vertically or turned upside down. Based on the excellent parahydrophobic function of bionic yarn, we demonstrated a glove that has very wide application potential in the fields of water droplet-based transportation, manipulation, microreactors, microextractors, etc.

Abstract
Parahydrophobic surfaces (PHSs) composed of arrays of cubic μ-pillars with a double scale of roughness and variable wettability were systematically obtained in one step and a widely accessible stereolithographic Formlabs 3D printer. The wettability control was achieved by combining the geometrical parameters (H = height and P = pitch) and the surface modification with fluoroalkyl silane compounds. Homogeneous distribution of F and Si atoms onto the pillars was observed by XPS and SEM-EDAX. A nano-roughness on the heads of the pillars was achieved without any post-treatment. The smallest P values lead to surfaces with static contact angles (CAs) >150° regardless of the H utilized. Interestingly, the relationship 0.6 ≤ H/P ≤ 2.6 obtained here was in good agreement with the H/P values reported for nano- and submicron pillars. Furthermore, experimental CAs, advancing and receding CAs, were consistent with the theoretical prediction from the Cassie-Baxter model. Structures covered with perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane with high H and short P lead to PHSs. Conversely, structures covered with perfluorodecyltrimethoxysilane exhibited a superhydrophobic behavior. Finally, several aqueous reactions, such as precipitation, coordination complex, and nanoparticle synthesis, were carried out by placing the reactive agents as microdroplets on the parahydrophobic pillars, demonstrating the potential application as chemical multi-reaction array platforms for a large variety of relevant fields in microdroplet manipulation, microfluidics systems, and health monitoring, among others.

Micro/Nano Periodic Surface Structures and Performance of Stainless Steel Machined Using Femtosecond Lasers. MICROMACHINES 2022; 13:mi13060976. [PMID: 35744590 PMCID: PMC9230448 DOI: 10.3390/mi13060976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2022] [Revised: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
The machining of micro/nano periodic surface structures using a femtosecond laser has been an academic frontier and hotspot in recent years. With an ultrahigh laser fluence and an ultrashort pulse duration, femtosecond laser machining shows unique advantages in material processing. It can process almost any material and can greatly improve the processing accuracy with a minimum machining size and heat-affected zone. Meanwhile, it can fabricate a variety of micro/nano periodic surface structures and then change a material's surface performance dramatically, such as the material's wetting performance, corrosive properties, friction properties, and optical properties, demonstrating great application potential in defense, medical, high-end manufacturing, and many other fields. In recent years, the research is gradually deepening from the basic theory to optimization design, intelligent control, and application technology. Nowadays, while focusing on metal structure materials, especially on stainless steel, research institutions in the field of micro and nano manufacturing have conducted systematic and in-depth experimental research using different experimental environments and laser-processing parameters. They have prepared various surface structures with different morphologies and periods with sound performance, and are one step closer to many civilian engineering applications. This paper reviews the study of micro/nano periodic surface structures and the performance of stainless steel machined using a femtosecond laser, obtains the general evolution law of surface structure and performance with the femtosecond laser parameters, points out several key technical challenges for future study, and provides a useful reference for the engineering research and application of femtosecond laser micro/nano processing technology.

Abstract
In this work, Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), one of the most widely consumed polymers, has been used as starting material for the development of non-stick surfaces through a fast, simple and scalable method based on solvent-induced crystallization to generate roughness, followed by a fluorination step. Several solvents were tested, among which dichloromethane was chosen because it gives rise to the formation of a particulate layer with rough topography. This particulate layer was covered by a polymer thin and smooth skin that must be removed to leave the rough layer as surface. The skin has been successfully removed by two strategies based on mechanical and chemical removal, each strategy producing different surface properties. A final treatment with a diluted solution of a fluorinated silane showed that it is possible to obtain PET surfaces with a water contact angle higher than 150° and low water adhesion. The reason behind this behavior is the development of a hierarchical rough profile during the induced polymer crystallization process. These surfaces were characterized by XRD, FTIR and DSC to monitor solvent induced crystallization. Topography was studied by SEM and optical profilometry. Wetting behavior was studied by measuring the contact angles and hysteresis.

A bioinspired approach to fabricate fluorescent nanotubes with strong water adhesion by soft template electropolymerization and post-grafting. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 606:236-247. [PMID: 34390991 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2021.08.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Revised: 07/31/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
HYPOTHESIS In this original work, we aim to control both the surface wetting and fluorescence properties of extremely ordered and porous conducting polymer nanotubes prepared by soft template electropolymerization and post-grafting. For reaching this aim, various substituents of different hydrophobicity and fluorescence were post-grafted and the post-grafting yields were evaluated by surface analyses. We show that the used polymer is already fluorescent before post-grafting while the post-grafting yield and as a consequence the surface hydrophobicity highly depend on the substituent. EXPERIMENTS Here, we have chosen to chemically grafting various fluorinated and aromatic substituents using a post-grafting in order to keep the same surface topography. Flat conducting polymer surfaces with similar properties have been also prepared for determining the surface energy with the Owens-Wendt equation and estimating the post-grafting yield by X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS) and Time of Flight Secondary Emission Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). For example, using fluorinated chains of various length (C4F9, C6F13 and C8F17), it is demonstrated that the surface hydrophobicity and oleophobicity do not increase with the fluorinated chain length due to the different post-grafting yields and because of the presence of nanoroughness after post-grafting. FINDINGS These surfaces have high apparent water contact angle up to 130.5° but also strong water adhesion, comparable to rose petal effect even if there are no nanotubes on petal surface. XPS and ToF-SIMS analyses provided a detailed characterisation of the surface chemistry with a qualitative classification of the grafted surfaces (F6 > F4 > F8). SEM analysis shows that grafting does not alter the surface morphology. Finally, fluorescence analyses show that the polymer surfaces before post-treatment are already nicely fluorescent. Although the main goal of this paper was and is to understand the role of surface chemistry in tailoring the wetting properties of these surfaces rather than provide specific application examples, we believe that the obtained results can help the development of specific nanostructured materials for potential applications in liquid transport, or in stimuli responsive antimicrobial surfaces.

Abstract
In this study, two-step approaches to fabricate periodic microstructures on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrates are presented to control the wettability of polymeric surfaces. Micropillar arrays with periods between 1.6 and 4.6 µm are patterned by plate-to-plate hot embossing using chromium stamps structured by four-beam Direct Laser Interference Patterning (DLIP). By varying the laser parameters, the shape, spatial period, and structure height of the laser-induced topography on Cr stamps are controlled. After that, the wettability properties, namely the static, advancing/receding contact angles (CAs), and contact angle hysteresis were characterized on the patterned PET and PMMA surfaces. The results indicate that the micropillar arrays induced a hydrophobic state in both polymers with CAs up to 140° in the case of PET, without modifying the surface chemistry. However, the structured surfaces show high adhesion to water, as the droplets stick to the surfaces and do not roll down even upon turning the substrates upside down. To investigate the wetting state on the structured polymers, theoretical CAs predicted by Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter models for selected structured samples with different topographical characteristics are also calculated and compared with the experimental data.

Abstract
Using a bioinspired approach, we prepare poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole) (PEDOP) films with parahydrophobic properties, characterized by high apparent water contact angle and strong water adhesion. The films are made by electropolymerization and the influence of substitution by an alkyl chain of various length (from C4H9 to C14H29) on the 3,4-ethylenedioxy-bridge is reported. More precisely, the best properties are obtained from a length of C12H25 due to the formation of spherical nanoparticles.

Abstract
Natural superwettable surfaces have received extensive attention due to their unique wetting performance and functionalities. Inspired by nature, artificial surfaces with superwettability, particularly superamphiphobicity, i.e., superhydrophobicity and superoleophobicity, have been widely developed using various methods and techniques, where 3D printing, which is also called additive manufacturing, is an emerging technique. 3D printing is efficient for rapid and precise prototyping with the advantage of fabricating various architectures and structures with extreme complexity. Therefore, it is promising for building bioinspired superamphiphobic surfaces with structural complexity in a facile manner. Herein, the state-of-the-art 3D printing techniques and methods for fabricating superwettable surfaces with micro/nanostructures are reviewed, followed by an overview of their extensive applications, which are believed to be promising in engineered wettability, bionic science, liquid transport, microfluidics, drag reduction, anti-fouling, oil/water separation, etc.

Abstract
In nature, wetting phenomena are present nearly everywhere and are a source of inspiration for liquid transportation. A good understanding of the underlying dynamic phenomena that governs wettability is therefore extremely important for researchers involved in bio-inspired surfaces. Herein, we study the adhesive behavior with water of mesh substrates modified with structured copolymers in order to tune the surfaces from parahydrophobic states (high water adhesion) to superhydrophobic states (low water adhesion). Using the ejection test method (ETM), a new technique that consists of the ejection of water droplets deposited onto a substrate with the aid of a catapult system, we experimentally demonstrate that the elasticity of the mesh substrate can be exploited for efficient vertical actuation of droplets.

Abstract
Here, we control the surface hydrophobicity and the adhesion of water droplets by electrodeposition of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole) (PEDOP) and poly(3,4-propylenedioxypyrrole) (PProDOP) with branched alkyl chains placed preferentially on the bridge to favor the formation of nanofibers. Branched alkyl chains of various sizes from very short (C3) to hyperbranched (C18) are studied because they have lower surface hydrophobicity than long alkyl or fluoroalkyl chains (preferable for parahydrophobic properties). The electrodeposition is much more favored with the PEDOP derivatives because the ProDOP films are more soluble. However, the formation of nanoparticles is favored with the PEDOP polymers in contrast to the formation of fibers, resembling the wax nanoclusters observed on lotus leaves, with the ProDOP polymers. With both these PEDOP and PProDOP derivatives, it is possible to reach parahydrophobic properties characterized by a sticking behavior toward water droplets. This kind of surfaces could be used in the future in water harvesting systems, for example.

Abstract
In the aim to obtain parahydrophobic materials (both high contact angles and high hysteresis) for possible applications in water harvesting systems, we report the synthesis of novel 3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole (EDOP) and 3,4-propylenedioxypyrrole (ProDOP) monomers with aromatic rings on the 3,4-alkylenedioxy bridge and the resulting conducting polymer films were prepared by electropolymerization. We show that the surface properties can be tuned by the nature of the aromatic ring (phenyl, biphenyl, diphenyl, naphthalene, fluorene, and pyrene) and the polymerizable core (EDOP or ProDOP). The best results are obtained with both EDOP and diphenyl, with which extremely high hydrophobic properties (up to 116°) are obtained, even if the polymers are intrinsically hydrophilic. These surfaces could be applied in the future, for example, in water harvesting systems or in water/oil separation membranes. The synthesis strategy is extremely interesting, and many other molecules will be envisaged in the future.

Abstract
Ordered hierarchical structures were fabricated on a stainless steel surface using a single picosecond laser for highly controllable dimensions. Picosecond laser induced periodic structures were firstly used to create large-scale nano-structures with a period of ~450 nm. Subsequently, laser direct writing, by simply changing process parameters was employed to create micro squared structures with 19 μm width, 19 μm interval and 3-7.5 μm depth on the previously created nano-structures. As a result, micro squared structures covered by uniform nano-structures, similar to examples present in nature, were successfully fabricated. Additionally, the wettability of the created hierarchical structures was analyzed. The results demonstrated that the combination of both micro- and nano-structures allowed to tune the wetting behavior, presenting a great potential for wettability applications.

Abstract
The economical use of water-repellent coatings on polymeric materials in commercial and industrial applications is limited by their mechanical wear robustness and long-term durability. In this study, we demonstrate that polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric modified with inorganic, methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS)-based coatings shows excellent resistance against various types of wear damage, thereby mimicking superhydrophobic biological materials. These features were facilitated by the rational design of coating processing that also enabled tunable hierarchical surface structure. A series of custom and standard testing protocols revealed that coating-to-substrate adhesion was remarkably high, as was the resistance to various mechanical abradents. The most intriguing characteristic observed during aging and abrasion cycles was the enhancement in non-wettability or 'rejuvenation' reflected by water droplet roll-off behavior, a characteristic of self-cleaning materials. Water-repellent properties of coated polyester were also enhanced by prolonged thermal annealing and were maintained after custom laundry. The developed technology offers opportunities to design low cost, durable and functional textiles for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Abstract
AbstractVegetal and animal reigns offer many examples of surfaces with surprising and interesting wetting properties. As example, springtails present superoleophobic properties allowing to live in soil and Lotus leaves show self-cleaning ability even under rainfalls. Indeed, it is known that self-cleaning properties can help to remove dust and particles during rainfalls and as a consequence to clean the surface. The bioinspiration of these surface properties is of a real interest for industrial applications in the nanotechnology field such as photovoltaic systems or anti corrosive material. Here, we use a strategy based on electropolymerization to obtain these properties. The Staudinger-Vilarrasa reaction is used to prepare innovative 3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole (EDOP) monomers with fluorinated chains. Using C6F13 or C8F17 chains, the polymer surfaces formed after electrodeposition show superhydrophobic and superoleophobic features. Here we study the surface wettability depending on the surface energy (based on the perfluorinated chain length), the surface roughness and morphology.

Abstract
Multifunctional surfaces with reversible wetting characteristics are fabricated utilizing end-anchored polymer chains on hierarchically roughened surfaces. Temperature- and/or pH-responsive surfaces are developed that exhibit reversible and controllable wettability, from the "parahydrophobic" behavior of natural plant leaves all the way to superhydrophilic properties in response to the external stimuli. For this purpose, dual scale micro/nanoroughened surfaces were prepared by laser irradiation of inorganic surfaces (Si wafers) utilizing ultrafast (femtosecond) laser pulses under a reactive gas atmosphere. End-functionalized polymer chains were anchored onto those surfaces utilizing the "grafting to" method; poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), PNIPAM, and poly(2-vinylpyridine), P2VP, were used for the formation of monofunctional as well as mixed brushes. The surfaces exhibit "parahydrophobic" behavior in the hydrophobic state (high temperature and/or high pH), with high static contact angles (∼120°) and high water adhesion (∼30° contact angle hysteresis), whereas they show superhydrophilic behavior in the hydrophilic state (low temperature and/or low pH). The surfaces were tested for their wettability under repetitive cycles and found to be stable and reproducible.
