Superhierarchically rough films are rapidly synthesised on metal substrates via electrochemically triggered self-assembly of meso/macroporous-structured metal-organic framework (MOF) crystals. These coatings are applied to immobilise a functional oil with low surface energy to provide stable coatings repellent to a wide range of hydrophobic as well as hydrophilic fluids. Such omniphobic surfaces are highly interesting for several applications such as anti-fouling, anti-icing, and dropwise condensation, and become easily scalable with the presented bottom-up fabrication approach. As investigated by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM), the presented perfluorinated oil-infused Cu-BTC coating constitutes of a flat liquid-covered surface with protruding edges of octahedral superstructured MOF crystals. Water and non-polar diiodomethane droplets form considerably high contact angles and even low-surface-tension fluids, e.g. acetone, form droplets on the infused coating. The repellent properties towards the test fluids do not change upon extended water spraying in contrast to oil-infused porous copper oxide or native copper surfaces. It is discussed in detail, how the presented electrodeposited MOF films grow and provide a proficient surface morphology to stabilise the functional oil film due to hemiwicking.
通过电化学触发介观/大孔结构金属有机框架(MOF)晶体的自组装,在金属基底上快速合成了超层级粗糙薄膜。这些涂层用于固定具有低表面能的功能油,以提供对多种疏水和亲水流体都具有排斥性的稳定涂层。这种全憎表面在诸如防污、防冰和滴状冷凝等多种应用中极具吸引力,并且通过所提出的自下而上的制造方法很容易实现规模化生产。通过环境扫描电子显微镜(ESEM)研究发现,所呈现的全氟油注入的Cu-BTC涂层由一个平坦的液体覆盖表面和八面体超结构MOF晶体的突出边缘组成。水和非极性二碘甲烷液滴形成了相当大的接触角,甚至低表面张力的流体,如丙酮,也在注入油的涂层上形成液滴。与注入油的多孔氧化铜或天然铜表面相比,在长时间喷水后,对测试流体的排斥性能不会改变。详细讨论了所呈现的电沉积MOF薄膜如何生长,并由于半芯吸作用提供一种有效的表面形态来稳定功能油膜。
