Abstract

Objective To prepare superhydrophobic and oleophobic textile fabrics with good conductive property. Methods The surface of polyester fabric was first coated with copper using the chemical copper-plating method to build a micron-submicron structure. Then the superhydrophobic and oleophobic conductive fabrics were fabricated through chemical vapor deposition of 1H,1H, 2H,2H-perfluorooctyltrimethoxysilane (PFTMS) to generate a layer of low surface energy group on the surface of the Cu-planted polyester fabrics. The properties of amphiphobic polyester fabrics including surface morphology, element distribution, amphiphobicity and electrical conductivity were investigated with scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), contact angle tester and square resistance tester. Results It showed that the PFTMS-Cu-modified polyester fabrics had outstanding conductive capability, the sheet resistance was about 230 mΩ, and the resistance to UV performance was up to 50+. The contact angles of the modified polyester fabrics with water and n-hexadecane were 152. 0° and 120. 7°, respectively. Conclusion Superhydrophobic and oleophobic fabrics with good conductive property could be successfully fabricated using PFTMS by chemical copper-plating and chemical vapor deposition method.
