Facile preparation of durable and robust superhydrophobic textiles by dip coating in nanocomposite solution of organosilanes

Abstract

This article presents a facile approach for the preparation of durable and robust superhydrophobic textiles by simply dip coating in a nanocomposite solution of fluoro-free organosilanes. The superhydrophobic textiles exhibit good water repellency and excellent mechanical, chemical and environmental stability.
