A review of plasma-based superhydrophobic textiles: theoretical definitions, fabrication, and recent developments
2021
In this review, we present a comprehensive survey of techniques used to fabricate superhydrophobic—extreme nonwetting—textiles by plasma systems. First, we provide a brief introduction to superhydrophobic surfaces, plasma sources, and plasma surface processing. We then assess the plasma-based techniques capable of producing the required rough surface micronanotextures of superhydrophobic surfaces. The implications of tailoring the specific surface chemistry and texture will be discussed, and finally, we summarize future challenges and issues to be addressed for ensuring a better understanding and use of superhydrophobic fabrics.
