Abstract
Highly hydrophobic flax fabrics with durable properties were prepared using the "dip-coating" method for self-cleaning application. Flax fabrics were coated with a polysiloxane coating via a hydrosilylation reaction with a Karstedt catalyst at room temperature. The coated fabrics displayed highly and durable hydrophobic properties (contact angle and sliding angle of about 145° and 23°, respectively) with good self-cleaning ability for certain pollutants and excellent durability. Moreover, the influence of the coating process on the mechanical properties of fabrics was investigated. A decrease in E modulus and an increase in tensile stress at maximum force and elongation at maximum force has been observed. Furthermore, this influence of the coating process can be easily controlled by adjusting the proportion of curing agent in the treatment solution.

Abstract
The effective separation of oil and water presents a significant global challenge due to the growing prevalence of industrial oily wastewater. In this investigation, a superhydrophobic (SP) coating based on bio-copper (Cu) was successfully created using the grape seed extract and applied onto a textile fabric (TF) to create a highly efficient membrane for oil-water (O-W) separation. The characteristics of the resulting bio-Cu nanoparticles, including surface area, morphology, and composition, were examined. The developed SP TF (STF) membrane, based on bio-Cu, underwent extensive analysis of its wettability, morphology, surface composition, oil absorption capacity, O-W separation performance, flux rate, mechanical stability, and chemical stability. The STF membrane exhibited excellent SP properties, with a high-water contact angle of 156° and a low water sliding angle of 2°, indicating its exceptional ability to repel water. Furthermore, the membrane demonstrated a remarkable oil absorption capacity, separation efficiency, and the flux rate toward three different oils (diesel, corn oil, and kerosene). It displayed good mechanical and chemical stability, with the ability to withstand abrasion and immersion in solutions of different pH values for varying exposure times. These findings highlight the potential of the bio-Cu-based STF membrane as an effective and durable solution for O-W separation applications.

Abstract
The ability of a superhydrophobic fabric to stay dry and clean has aroused great interest in daily life. Especially, the development of an eco-friendly non-fluorinated water-repellent textile has become a hot topic in recent years. We present a green strategy to achieve self-cleaning textile by in situ deposition of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on cotton with subsequent polydimethylsiloxane modification. The prepared cotton fabric exhibits superior water repellency with a water contact angle of 157°. Meanwhile, this superhydrophobic surface can easily be ruined by oil contaminants and then exhibit a decreased water contact angle of 0°. However, the oil-contaminated surface can recover its water repellency after being irradiated. After six cycles of contamination using oleic acid and successive photodegradation, the fabric surface remains superhydrophobic. The obtained superhydrophobic surface does not adversely affect the fabric's strength and air permeability. Therefore, the developed superhydrophobic cotton fabrics have the potential to be used in a variety of industrial scenarios and in daily life.

Abstract
The efficient separation of oil and water is a significant challenge worldwide due to the increasing frequency of industrial oily wastewater. Previous work by our group utilizes biological metal-organic framework-based superhydrophobic (S.P) textile fabric for oil/water separation. However, this system is limited due to the low mechanical stability, so there is a need for producing a more robust S.P membrane for oil/water separation. In this study, we report on the synthesis of carbon quantum dots (CQD) from banana leaves via a hydrothermal process and their application in producing a robust S.P coating on textile fabric for oil/water separation. The CQDs were characterized using various techniques including TEM, XRD, absorbance spectroscopy, and the BET method. The TEM images showed that the CQDs were circular in shape with a size of 4.4 nm, while the XRD micrograph indicated that the CQDs were crystalline in nature. The UV-vis graph showed a peak at a wavelength of 278 nm, suggesting strong absorption in the ultraviolet region. The BET-specific surface area of the prepared CQDs is 845 m2/g, with a pore volume of 0.33 cm3/g, and a mean pore diameter of 1.62 nm. We examined the surface wettability, morphology, composition, oil absorption capacity, oil/water separation performance, flux rate, chemical stability, and mechanical stability of the S.P membrane. Our findings indicate that the developed CQD-based S.P membrane possesses excellent S.P properties, displaying high water contact angles of 163° and low water sliding angles of 1°. The membrane demonstrated superior oil absorption capacity, separation efficiency, and flux rate towards three different oils-petroleum ether, n-hexane, and silicone oil. Petroleum ether has the highest separation efficiency (99.5%), and flux rate (13,500 L m-2 h-1), while silicone oil has the lowest. However, silicone oil has the highest absorption capacity (218.9 g/g) and petroleum ether has the lowest (194.8 g/g). For the absorption capacity and separation efficiency, a one-way ANOVA test was conducted. The statistical analyses revealed significant differences in absorption capacity and separation efficiency for the three oils, highlighting the efficacy of the superhydrophobic membrane for tailored oil/water separation. Additionally, the S.P membrane exhibited good mechanical (the membrane maintains its superhydrophobicity until an abrasion length of 850 cm) and chemical stability (the membrane maintains its superhydrophobicity in pH range 1-13), withstanding abrasion and immersion in solutions of varying pH values. The CQD-based S.P membrane shows great potential as a promising material for oil/water separation applications, with excellent performance and stability under various environmental conditions.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic cotton fabrics have a lot of potential for use in practical settings. The majority of superhydrophobic cotton fabrics, however, only serve one purpose and are made from fluoride or silane chemicals. Therefore, it remains a challenge to develop multifunctional superhydrophobic cotton fabrics using environmentally friendly raw materials. In this study, chitosan (CS), amino carbon nanotubes (ACNTs), and octadecylamine (ODA) were used as raw materials to create CS-ACNTs-ODA photothermal superhydrophobic cotton fabrics. The cotton fabric that was created showed a remarkable superhydrophobic property with a water contact angle of 160.3°. The surface temperature of CS-ACNTs-ODA cotton fabric can rise by up to 70 °C when exposed to simulated sunlight, demonstrating the fabric's remarkable photothermal capabilities. Additionally, the coated cotton fabric is capable of quick deicing. Ice particles (10 μL) melted and began to roll down in 180 s under the light of "1 sun". The cotton fabric exhibits good durability and adaptability in terms of mechanical qualities and washing tests. Moreover, the CS-ACNTs-ODA cotton fabric displays a separation efficacy of more than 91% when used to treat various oil and water mixtures. We also impregnate the coating on polyurethane sponges, which can quickly absorb and separate oil and water mixtures.

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
The growth and reproduction of microorganisms on fabrics could not only affect the wearability of textiles but also cause harm to human health, and it is an important problem that should be solved to reduce the adsorption and growth of microorganisms on the surface of the fabric. A series of ω-vinyl betaine copolymers were synthesized by catalytic chain transfer polymerization (CCTP) and were modified by mercapto-vinyl click chemistry to synthesize silane-modified betaine copolymers, which were used to treat the cotton fabric. The hydrophilic–hydrophobic transition performance and anti-protein specific adhesion performance of cotton fabric with the betaine copolymer were systematically investigated. The copolymer was confirmed to be successfully finished on the cotton fabric via 1H–NMR and FTIR. The cotton fabric, which was treated by the betaine copolymer, presented temperature response performance in the range of 30–55 °C and had excellent anti-protein adsorption performance. The treated fabric had the best temperature-sensitive and anti-protein specific absorption performance among all the specimens when the mass fraction of G06B in DMAPS was 6 wt.%.

Abstract
Cost-effective separation of oil and immiscible organic contaminants from water has become an urgent challenge to protect aquatic and human life from devastating effects. Therefore, it has become imperative to develop super-selective materials for efficiently separating oil from water. In this work, a superhydrophobic surface has been formed that consists of a silane@polystyrene-coated polypropylene fibrous network (silane@PS-PPF) for efficient separation of accidentally spilled oil from water. The superhydrophobic PPFs were designed by a simple, cost-effective two-step process that includes photochemically controlled polymerization of styrene and subsequent dip coating in octadecyltrichlorosilane solution. The hydrophobic surface (CA=129°±4°) of the PS coated PPF after treating with silane was turned into a superhydrophobic body (CA=161°±2°). The achieved silane@PS-PPF fibrous network selectively allowed the fast permeation of the oils and non-polar organic liquids by altogether rejecting water during operation. The separation efficiency for various oils from the contaminated water was 96 to 99%, with a high flux in the range of 7606±312 L m-2 h-1 to 9870±151 L m-2 h-1 . Apart from being used as a filter, the silane@PS-PPF was also used as an oil absorber and has shown an absorption capacity in the range of 1185 to 1535% for various oils. We anticipate that the developed silane@PS-PPF, due to its facile synthetic route, cost-effectiveness, and high performance, can be effectively used in oily wastewater treatment and clean-up of large oil spills from water.

Abstract
A durable superhydrophobic, self-cleaning cotton fabric prepared with UV curing was prepared by a simple method and used for oil/water separation. Firstly, sulfhydryl silica nanoparticles on the fabric surface were prepared by the Stöber reaction (SiO2-SH@cotton). Then, the side chain hydroxyl terminated PDMS was reacted with isocyanate to form an isocyanate terminated prepolymer. The prepolymer terminated by HEMA (vinyl-terminated PDMS (PIH)) was sprayed on the fabric surface, and then the superhydrophobic coating (SiO2-S-PIH@cotton) was formed using UV curing. A series of characterization methods were used to demonstrate the properties of the modified cotton fabric. When the weight gain after PIH spraying was 1.8 wt%, the fabric reaches an optimal state (water contact angle (WCA) of 153° and a sliding angle of 7°). When used in an oil-water separation test, the highest separation efficiency reached 99.1%. In particular, the as-prepared fabric has excellent wear resistance. Compared with that before spraying, the superhydrophobicity of the as-prepared fabric has no obvious decrease after 300 cycles under 200 g of weight or after 100 cycles under 500 g of circular friction. This indicated that surface sprayed polymers have two functions: providing low surface tension and protecting the rough surface formed by silica particles. This process was time-saving, energy-saving, protected the environment, had a low material cost and a strong performance stability. It is hoped that this fabric can be used in the large-scale industrialization of oil-water separation.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymer architectures are attracting a lot of interest, but it still remains a great challenge to develop effective industrial-scale strategies. A single-stage and cost-effective approach was applied to fabricate a three-dimensional (3D) smart responsive surface with fast and reversibly switchable wetting between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity/underwater superoleophobicity properties induced by photo and heat stimuli. Commercially available PVDF and P25TiO2 as starting materials fabricated with a scaled-up electrospinning approach were applied to prepare 3D smart switchable PVDF-P25TiO2 nanotextile superwetted by both UV and solar light that is simply recovered by heat at a reasonable time. The superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic photo-induced nanotextile will act in "water-removing" mode in which water quickly passes through and the oil is blocked on the surface. An acceptable recycling, reusing, and superior antifouling and self-cleaning performance arising from a TiO2 photocatalytic effect makes it highly desired in a green scaled-up industry oily wastewater treatment technology. With these advantages, a large-scale industrial production process can be simply simulated by applying a conducting mesh-like collector substrate.
