Title

Preparation Of A Superhydrophobic And Conductive Nanocomposite Coating From A Carbon-Nanotube-Conjugated Block Copolymer Dispersion

Abstract

The development of a highly conductive superhydrophobic surface on a wide range of substrate materials by a simple solvent casting of a conjugated conducting-polymer/carbon-nanotube dipersion was investigated. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were purchased from Nanolab and used as received. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) measurement using polystyrene as standard indicated a number-average molecular mass. The morphology and structural features of the honeycomb structures were characterized by SEM. Fluorescence images were taken by using an Olympus BX51 system. The water contact angle was acquired by a 'DropImage' contact angle measurement system. It was observed that the superhydrophobicity is stable over a long period at ambient conditions.
