Synthesis and Applications of Novel Fluoroalkyl End-capped Oligomers/Silica Gel Polymer Hybrids

Fluoroalkyl end-capped N,N-dimethylacrylamide and acryloylmorpholine oligomers were polymerized with hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) to afford homogeneous fluoroalkyl end-capped oligomers and silica gel polymer hybrids, respectively. In particular, the sol solutions of fluorinated oligomers/TEOS polymer hybrids were applied to surface modifications of glass with not only a strong oleophobicity but also good hydrophilicity.
