Superhydrophobic coatings have broad application prospects due to their advantages such as self-cleaning, antifouling, anti-icing, and deicing. However, traditional superhydrophobic coatings contain fluorine-containing components, which pose environmental and health risks. Developing fluorine-free stable superhydroph...
In the field of aluminum alloy protection, constructing durable superhydrophobic coatings through a simple strategy is always a great challenge. Here, we report a functional coating with high mechanical robustness and superhydrophobic recoverability, composed of 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (PTES) bonde...
Multifunctional textiles with integrated protective properties and long-term durability are highly desirable for practical applications. Here, a facile and scalable coating strategy is developed to fabricate biomass-derived composite coatings on cotton and polylactic acid (PLA) nonwoven fabrics, enabling simultaneous...
Cotton fabrics offer excellent comfort and biodegradability, but suffer from high flammability and poor antibacterial properties, limiting their use in safety–critical applications. Herein, a multifunctional modification strategy is proposed: phosphonated hyaluronic acid and quaternized chitosan are synthesized to...
A durable and environmentally friendly superhydrophobic cellulose-based membrane, denoted as FP/PDA@MCC/OTS (where FP, PDA, MCC, and OTS represent filter paper, polydopamine, microcrystalline cellulose, and octadecyltrichlorosilane, respectively), was fabricated via a simple PDA toughening and OTS-modified MCC coating...
As wildfires intensify due to climate change and expanding development in fire-prone areas of the world, there is a critical need for scalable, bioinspired flame-retardant technologies that can be applied across diverse substrates and environments. Here, we introduce DopaShield, a sprayable, bioinspired flame-retardant...
