POLYMER EDITION 2024; 35:1359-1378. [PMID: 38490948 DOI: 10.1080/09205063.2024.2329453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
Indwelling medical catheters are frequently utilized in medical procedures, but they are highly susceptible to infection, posing a vital challenge for both health workers and patients. In this study, the superhydrophobic micro-nanostructure surface was constructed on the surface of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) membrane using heavy calcium carbonate (CaCO3) template. To decrease the surface free energy, hydroxyl silicone oil was grafted onto the surface, forming a super-hydrophobic surface. The water contact angle (WCA) increased from 91.1° to 143 ± 3° when the concentration of heavy calcium CaCO3 was 20% (weight-to-volume (w/v)). However, the increased WCA was unstable and tended to decrease over time. After grafting hydroxyl silicone oil, the WCA rose to 152.05 ± 1.62° and remained consistently high for a period of 30 min. Attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) analysis revealed a chemical crosslinking between silicone oil and the surface of TPU. Furthermore, Scanning electron microscope (SEM) image showed the presence of numerous nanoparticles on the micro surface. Atomic force microscope (AFM) testing indicated a significant improvement in surface roughness. This method of creating a hydrophobic surface demonstrated several advantages, including resistance to cell, bacterial, protein, and platelet adhesion and good biosecurity. Therefore, it holds promising potential for application in the development of TPU-based medical catheters with antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Bacterial adhesion and subsequent biofilm formation on the surfaces of synthetic materials imposes a significant burden in various fields, which can lead to infections in patients or reduce the service life of industrial devices. Therefore, there is increasing interest in imbuing surfaces with antibacterial properties. Bioinspired superhydrophobic surfaces with high water contact angles (>150°) exhibit excellent surface repellency against contaminations, thereby preventing initial bacterial adhesion and inhibiting biofilm formation. However, conventional superhydrophobic surfaces typically lack long-term durability and are incapable of achieving persistent efficacy against bacterial adhesion. To overcome these limitations, in recent decades, dual-function superhydrophobic antibacterial surfaces with both bacteria-repelling and bacteria-killing properties have been developed by introducing bactericidal components. These surfaces have demonstrated improved long-term antibacterial performance in addressing the issues associated with surface-attached bacteria. This review summarizes the recent advancements of these dual-function superhydrophobic antibacterial surfaces. First, a brief overview of the fabrication strategies and bacteria-repelling mechanism of superhydrophobic surfaces is provided and then the dual-function superhydrophobic antibacterial surfaces are classified into three types based on the bacteria-killing mechanism: i) mechanotherapy, ii) chemotherapy, and iii) phototherapy. Finally, the limitations and challenges of current research are discussed and future perspectives in this promising area are proposed.

Abstract
Food packages have been detected carrying novel coronavirus in multi-locations since the outbreak of COVID-19, causing major concern in the field of food safety. Metal-based supported materials are widely used for sterilization due to their excellent antibacterial properties as well as low biological resistance. As the principal part of antibacterial materials, the active component, commonly referred to Ag, Cu, Zn, etc., plays the main role in inhibiting and killing pathogenic microorganisms by destroying the structure of cells. As another composition of metal-based antibacterial materials, the carrier could support and disperse the active component, which on one hand, could effectively decrease the usage amount of active component, on the other hand, could be processed into various forms to broaden the application range of antibacterial materials. Different from other metal-based antibacterial reviews, in order to highlight the detailed function of various carriers, we divided the carriers into biocompatible and adsorptable types and discussed their different antibacterial effects. Moreover, a novel substitution antibacterial mechanism was proposed. The coating and shaping techniques of metal-based antibacterial materials as well as their applications in food storage at ambient and low temperatures are also comprehensively summarized. This review aims to provide a theoretical basis and reference for researchers in this field to develop new metal-based antibacterial materials.

Abstract
In response to the industry's difficulty in properly separating oily wastewater discharge, researchers are investigating enhanced oil/water separation materials. In this work, a cost-effective and environmentally friendly superhydrophobic textile fabric was fabricated for effective oil-water mixture and emulsion separation. A biological metal-organic framework consisting of copper as a core metal and aspartic acid as a linker (Cu-Asp MOF) was used to improve the surface roughness of the pristine textile fabric, and stearic acid was used to lower its surface energy. The thermal gravimetric analysis investigated the prepared Cu-Asp MOF's thermal stability. X-ray spectroscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy studied the crystal orientation and chemical composition of the Cu-Asp MOF, Cu-Asp MOF@SA, pristine textile fabric, and superhydrophobic textile fabric, respectively. The surface morphology of the pristine and modified textile fabric was studied by scanning electron microscope. The wettability results showed that the prepared superhydrophobic textile fabric has a water contact angle of 158° ± 1.3 and water sliding angle of 2° ± 0.2°. The prepared superhydrophobic textile fabric showed excellent oil-water mixture and emulsion separation performance, oil absorption capacity, chemical stability, mechanical abrasion resistance, and a high flux rate. These outstanding characteristics of the prepared superhydrophobic textile fabric greatly increase the possibility for practical applications.

Abstract
Abstract
Superhydrophobic cobalt and cobalt–graphene films were fabricated on copper bipolar plates (BPPs) using potentiostatic electrodeposition to improve their corrosion resistance and surface conductivity. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to study the surface morphology of the prepared superhydrophobic films. The results show that the cobalt film modified by stearic acid (Co-SA) and cobalt–graphene composite modified by stearic acid (Co–G-SA) exhibit micro–nano structures. The results of the Fourier transforming infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer confirm that the copper substrate was coated by Co-SA and Co–G-SA films. The wettability results of the prepared superhydrophobic films demonstrate that the films display superhydrophobicity, where the fabricated Co-SA and Co–G-SA films have contact angles (CAs) of 159 deg and 165 deg, respectively. Chemical stability, mechanical abrasion resistance, surface conductivity, and corrosion resistance in a simulated proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) environment are significantly higher for copper coated by Co–G-SA film. Because the copper coated with Co–G-SA has a low interfacial contact resistance (ICR) value and a high corrosion resistance, it is thought to be a good choice for PEMFC bipolar plates.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic coatings were successfully fabricated on steel substrates using potentiostatic electrodeposition of Ni and Ni-graphene, Ni-G, coatings followed by immersion in an ethanolic solution of stearic acid, SA. Rice straw, an environmentally friendly biomass resource, was used to synthesize high-quality graphene. The Raman spectra proved the high quality of the produced graphene. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, FTIR, results showed that the Ni coating grafted with stearic acid, Ni-SA, and the Ni-G composite grafted with stearic acid, Ni-G-SA, were successfully deposited on the steel substrate. The scanning electron microscope, SEM, results showed that the prepared superhydrophobic coatings exhibit micro-nano structures. The wettability results revealed that the values of contact angles, CAs, for Ni-SA and Ni-G-SA coatings are 155.7° and 161.4°, while the values of sliding angles, SAs, for both coatings are 4.0° and 1.0°, respectively. The corrosion resistance, chemical stability, and mechanical abrasion resistance of the Ni-G-SA coating were found to be greater than those of the Ni-SA coating.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic films were successfully grafted on a steel substrate using potentiostatic electrodeposition of nickel followed by treatment with myristic acid (MA) as a low surface energy material. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to investigate the surface topography of the prepared superhydrophobic films. The results revealed that the prepared Ni films modified by myristic acid have micro-nano structures. Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements showed that the steel substrate was coated with nickel film modified with myristic acid. Three different nickel films were prepared: the Ni-MA (I) deposited from pure nickel sulfate bath (1.0 M NiSO4), Ni-MA (II) deposited from pure nickel chloride bath (1.0 M NiCl2. 6H2O), and the third Ni-MA (III) film deposited from Watts bath (0.2 M NiCl2. 6H2O and 0.8M NiSO4). The superhydrophobic Ni-MA (I) film has the highest corrosion resistance, chemical stability, and mechanical abrasion resistance, while Ni-MA (II) film has the lowest properties.

Abstract
In this study, a novel biopolymer based on poly(glycerol sebacic)-urethane (PGS-U) and its nanocomposites containing Cloisite@30B were synthesized by facile approach in which the crosslinking was created by aliphatic hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) at room temperature and 80 °C. Moreover, metronidazole and tetracycline drugs were selected as target drugs and loaded into PGSU based nanocomposites. A uniform and continuous microstructure with smooth surface is observed in the case of pristine PGS-U sample. The continuity of microstructure is observed in the case of all bionanocomposites. XRD result confirmed an intercalated morphology for PGSU containing 5 wt% of clay nanoparticles with a d-spacing 3.4 nm. The increment of nanoclay content up to 5%, the ultimate tensile stress and elastic modulus were obtained nearly 0.32 and 0.83 MPa, which the latter was more than eight-fold than that of pristine PGS-U. A sustained release for both dugs was observed by 200 h. The slowest and controlled drug release rate was determined in the case of PGSU containing 5 wt% clay and cured at 80 °C. A non-Fickian diffusion can be concluded in the case of tetracycline release via PGS-U/nanoclay bionanocomposites, while a Fickian process was detected in the case of metronidazole release by PGS-U/nanoclay bionanocomposites. As a result, the designed scaffold showed high flexibility, which makes it an appropriate option for utilization in the treatment of periodontal disease.

Abstract
Biomimetic superhydrophobic surfaces show great potential in oil-water separation, anti-icing and self-cleaning. However, due to the instability caused by its fragile structure and non-durable superhydrophobicity, it is difficult to apply them in the actual field. Here, by introducing surface wettability and analysing the mechanism of superhydrophobic failure, it is concluded that the reason for the failure of the superhydrophobic surface comes from the transition of the surface energy and the hysteresis of the contact angle (CA). On the basis of this analysis, it is concluded that the principle of designing a durable superhydrophobic surface is to satisfy one of the following three points: improving the binding force between molecules, introducing durable materials and improving chemical durability. On this basis, a variety of preparation methods are proposed, such as assembly method and spray/dip coating method, and the design and preparation of a self-healing surface inspired by nature will also be included in the introduction. Last but not least, the preparation and application of a durable super-hydrophobic surface in oil-water separation, anti-icing and self-cleaning are also introduced in detail. This review reveals the conclusions and prospects of durable superhydrophobic surfaces, and aims to inspire more researchers to invest in this research.

Abstract
Surface wetting has a significant influence on the performance and applications of the materials. The superhydrophobic surfaces have water repellency due to low surface energy chemistry and micro/nanostructure roughness. The amazing applications of superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) lead to increase attention to superhydrophobicity in recent decades. The SHSs have been fabricated through chemical and physical methods. The further properties of SHSs as functions such as self-healing, anti-bacterial, anti-fouling, and stimuli-responsiveness are considered as the functions of the SHSs. The Multifunctional SHSs (MSHSs) that contained superhydrophobicity and at least two other properties as the next generation of the SHSs are swiftly developed in recent years. The multiple applications of the MSHSs are originated from specific morphology and functional groups of the MSHSs. The functions (properties) of the MSHSs are categorized into three groups including self-cleaning properties, restrictive properties, and smart properties. Designing and keeping surface structure plays a significant role in fabricating durable MSHSs. However, there is a big challenge to design and also scale up mechanochemical durable MSHSs. Based on state-of-the-art investigations, establishing a self-healing function can improve the durability of SHSs. The durable self-healing MSHSs can enhance the performance of the other functions and lifespan of the surface. In this review, all surface structures and superhydrophobic agents in MSHSs are investigated. The perspective of the MSHSs determined the next generation of the MSHSs have several significant parameters including durability, stability, more functions, more responsiveness, and environmentally friendly features for fabricating the large-scale MSHSs and enhancing their applications.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic cotton fabrics were fabricated using chitosan/titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposites. Morphology results revealed that the fabric's surface was utterly coated by the nanoparticles leading to the formation of a highly packed nano-scale structure in the case of superhydrophobic coating. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results also proved that TiO2 nanoparticles were highly adsorbed onto the fabric's top layer. Durability of the superhydrophobic coating was investigated by immersing the fabric into harsh solutions and also by subjecting the fabric to sonication. The results showed the high resistance of the superhydrophobic fabric against harsh conditions. The nanocomposite-coated fabrics were found to exhibit promising UV-protecting properties especially for the superhydrophobic fabric which showed around 80% enhancement in the UV protecting properties as compared with the uncoated fabric. The bacterial adhesion results revealed that the combination of chitosan and TiO2 results in high antibacterial properties against E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. The bacterial reduction percentages were further increased to 99.8 and 97.3% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively, once the superhydrophobic character was also induced to the fabrics. The developed nanocomposite coated fabrics exhibited promising potential to be used as antibacterial and self-cleaning garments in hospital-related applications.

Abstract
Due to their mechanical properties, ranging from flexible to hard materials, polyurethanes (PUs) have been widely used in many industrial and biomedical applications. PUs' characteristics, along with their biocompatibility, make them successful biomaterials for short and medium-duration applications. The morphology of PUs includes two structural phases: hard and soft segments. Their high mechanical resistance featuresare determined by the hard segment, while the elastomeric behaviour is established by the soft segment. The most important biomedical applications of PUs include antibacterial surfaces and catheters, blood oxygenators, dialysis devices, stents, cardiac valves, vascular prostheses, bioadhesives/surgical dressings/pressure-sensitive adhesives, drug delivery systems, tissue engineering scaffolds and electrospinning, nerve generation, pacemaker lead insulation and coatings for breast implants. The diversity of polyurethane properties, due to the ease of bulk and surface modification, plays a vital role in their applications.

Abstract
Development of chitosan nanofiber (CNF)/nano‑silver phosphate (Ag3PO4) coatings is reported for the fabrication of antibacterial cotton fabrics. The surface morphology and chemical composition were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. SEM results revealed that Ag3PO4 have formed micron-scale clusters and were not completely deposited on the fabric's surface whereas CNFs properly coated the fabric. However, once the hybrid of CNFs and Ag3PO4 was utilized, nanoparticles were better deposited on the fabric. The porous and nano-fibrous structure of CNFs provided an ideal substrate to which nanoparticles tightly adhered. The antibacterial activity of the as-synthesized Ag3PO4 nanoparticles was demonstrated by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Moreover, the antibacterial property of the coated fabrics was demonstrated by colony counting method and zone of inhibition (ZOI). The bacterial adhesion reductions for CNF/Ag3PO4 coated fabrics were obtained as 100 and 99.8% against S. aureus and E. coli, respectively. Moreover, ZOI was highly increased in the case of the hybrid coating. The results demonstrated the promising potential of CNF/Ag3PO4 coatings for the fabrication of antibacterial cotton fabrics to be used as antibacterial garments for clinical environments.
