The mixture solution of MnO2/PS was poured into a spray gun, and then sprayed onto the copper substrate using 0.2 MPa nitrogen gas to construct superhydrophobic coating. The wettability of the composite coating was measured by sessile drop method. When the weight ratio of MnO2 to PS is 0.5:1, the maximum of contact angle (CA) (140°) is obtained at drying temperature of 180 ℃. As the content of MnO2 increases, the maximum of CA (155°) is achieved at 100 ℃. Surface morphologies and chemical composition were analyzed to understand the effect of the content of MnO2 nanorods and the drying temperature on CA. The results show that the wettability of the coating can be controlled by the content of MnO2 nanorods and the drying temperature. Using the proposed method, the thickness of the coating can be controlled by the spraying times. If damaged, the coating can be repaired just by spraying the mixture solution again.展开更多

Herein, to address this challenge, a sponge with unusual superhydrophilicity/superoleophobicity and magnetic property was fabricated through a dip-coating process. To exploit its superhydrophilic/superoleophobic property, the obtained sponge was used as a reusable water sorbent scaffold to collect water from bulk oils without absorbing any oil. Owing to its magnetic property, the sponge was manipulated remotely by a magnet without touching it directly during the whole water collection process, which could potentially lower the cost of the water collection process. Apart from acting as a water-absorbing material, the sponge can also be used as affiliation material to separate water from oil-water mixture and oil in water emulsion selectively, when fixed into a cone funnel. This research provides a key addition to the field of oil-water separation materials.展开更多
