The oily wastewater and oil spill caused by oil leakage accidents are extremely harmful to
human health and the environment. Thus, it is very important to exploit superhydrophobic …

The oily wastewater has posed a great threat to the environment and human health, and the
oil-water mixture is complex and diverse. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a smart and …

Various types of functional materials incorporating superhydrophobic components have
been rapidly developed for efficient oil/water separation. The post-processing of these used …

Superhydrophobic fabrics with high oil–water separation efficiencies have recently attracted
considerable attention because of the frequent oil pollution created by industry. However …

Large-scale fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces with excellent durability by simple
techniques has been of considerable interest for its urgent practical application in oil–water …

Special wetting materials have been used for the oil and water separation due to their
different interfacial attraction of oil and water. Herein, we successfully fabricated …

Inspired by the strong adhesion of mussel, taking advantage of a simple one-pot approach,
we designed a robust and boiling-water resistant superhydrophobic polydopamine@ SiO2 …

The limited robustness and complex preparation process greatly hinder the large-scale use
of superhydrophobic surfaces in real life. In this work, we adopt a simple method to prepare …

Highly efficient and multifunctional superhydrophobic fabrics have attracted widespread
attention because of the urgent need for oil–water separation technologies. A …

In this work, we prepare a PDMS–SiO2–PDA@ fabric with high water contact angle (WCA=
155°). Combining dopamine self-polymerization and a sol–gel method, SiO2 is in situ grown …
