The facile construction of a cotton fabric with excellent flame-retardant and water-proof abilities is of great interest for multitask requirements. Herein, a nonfluorine, highly efficient, and cost-effective multifunctional cotton fabric was fabricated via sequentially depositing a novel multielement-containing flame-retardant phosphorylated octa-aminopropyl POSS (PPA-POSS) and a fluorine-free superhydrophobic coating of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67@poly(dimethylsiloxane) (ZIF-67@PDMS). Influences of the PPA-POSS concentration and ZIF-67@PDMS formula on the fire retardancy and water repellency of treated cotton were systematically investigated. The optimized flame-retardant sample CTF3 with 6.2 wt % PPA-POSS exhibited a high limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 34% and self-extinguishing ability. CTF3 was further modified with a properly formulated superhydrophobic ZIF-67@PDMS coating. CTF3-PHB2 displayed enhanced thermal stability, flame retardancy, and outstanding superhydrophobicity. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results demonstrated that CTF3-PHB2 presented a high char residue of 35.9%, which was 220.5% higher than that of the control cotton (11.2%). More importantly, the heat release rate (HRR), total heat release (THR), and average effective heat of combustion (av-EHC) values of CTF3-PHB2 were significantly reduced by 51.4, 56.2, and 68.4%, respectively, compared with those of a pure cotton fabric. Moreover, CTF3-PHB2 showed superhydrophobicity (WCA > 159.3°) and good mechanical abrasion resistance. In addition, CTF3-PHB2 also showed protective abilities such as antifouling, self-cleaning, and water/oil separation performances even for strong acid/alkali mixtures. Thereby, it is believed that the PPA-POSS@ZIF-67@PDMS coating is promising for application in multifunctional textile materials.

Radiative-cooled textiles are attracting attention because they can spontaneously lower the microenvironmental temperature of the human body. The radiative cooling and hydrophobic fabric was prepared by two-step dip-coating on PET fabric with a ZnO/P(VDF-HFP) as radiative cooling coating and a PDMS hydrophobic wear-resistant layer. The effect of morphology (sheet, hexagonal prism, flower, and rod) of ZnO nanomaterial on the radiative cooling property of the coated fabric was examined. Among the four types of ZnO, the ZnO sheets have the highest sunlight reflectivity of 0.827. Besides, P(VDF-HFP) is a binder that loads ZnO onto PET fibers and enhances the solar reflectivity of coated fabric by reflecting visible light. Hence, the ZnO sheet/P(VDF-HFP)-PDMS (Z S PP) coated fabric possessed a solar reflectance of up to 91.3 % under the synergistic effect of ZnO sheets and P(VDF-HFP), and due to specific functional groups (e.g. C–F, C–Si) in the hybrid coating, and its mid-infrared emissivity reached 93.2 %. As a result, the Z S PP coated fabric were 7.1 °C cooler than the PET fabric under direct sunlight, with an average cooling efficiency of 72.6 W·m −2 . The coated fabric demonstrated well-hydrophobic and durability properties due to the PDMS, making them much more suitable for use in complex outdoor environments.

Practical significance in terms of the long-term effective application of photocatalytic coatings is greatly challenged by its easy pollution and poor self-cleaning performance. In this paper, a self-cleaning photocatalytic WO 3 -TiO 2 nanorod (MWT) /PDMS building coating (MWT coating) was prepared by spraying methods. The surface hierarchical structure fabricated by MWT and PDMS was a crux to construct a superhydrophobic surface, which endowed MWT coating with self-cleaning performance. Besides, the MWT coating exhibited prominent durability and antifouling property after 450 d practical application of the external wall. The excellent self-cleaning property of the coating was confirmed by the removal and resistance to the adhesion of powder particles. Meanwhile, the photocatalytic properties of MWT endowed MWT coating with the ability to degrade organic pollutants on the surface. The color difference of the coating polluted by methyl red was only 1.18 and 4.77 after 24 h UV and visible irradiation, respectively. This mutual benefit effect of self-cleaning and photocatalysis was also reflected in the degradation of NO. In the first five cycles, the degradation efficiency of NO decreased by 4.74% gradually under visible light due to the adhesion of oxidation products, and most of the MWT on the coating surface was regenerated after flushing, the PCD efficiency increased by 3.71%. Furthermore, after 30 days of outdoor weathering test, the PCD efficiency of MWT coating decreased by 11.74% and 12.05% under UV and visible light, respectively, which lays a foundation for the long-term effectiveness of the MWT coating in the process of use.

In order to solve the problem of blocking the filter media when bag filters are used to deal with high-humidity dust, hydrophobic surface-modified filter media were prepared. Here we constructed a multi-layer rough structure using TiO 2 and SiO 2 , with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) subsequently deposited to reduce its surface energy to prepare stable and robust TiO2–SiO2@PDMS modified superhydrophobic filter media. Through modification of the filter media, its surface was changed from superhydrophilic to superhydrophobic, and the water contact angle reached 158°. For the particles with 0.3 μm, the filtration efficiency and quality factor of the modified filter media are higher than those of the unmodified filter media at a flow velocity of 0.043–0.127 m/s, which improves the filtration performance of the filter media. In addition, the modified filter media has strong durability in harsh environmental conditions (such as mechanical wear, strong acid or alkali solution), and has excellent self-cleaning performance. Therefore, such superhydrophobic filter media have great potential for the application of bag filters in various industrial production processes.

Flexible thermal protection materials with excellent mechanical and ablative properties were one of the key components in promoting the development of a new generation of aircraft. In the present work, a robust, strongly adhesive, and ablation-resistant PDMS coating was prepared through the covalent connection between PDMS and vinyl-functionalized epoxy resin (EAP) by hydrosilylation. The EAP synthesized by molecular design was uniformly dispersed in the PDMS matrix as an island phase-separation structure. The tensile strength, elongation at break, and shear strength of EAP-modified PDMS (EAP@PDMS) were significantly increased by 575%, 155%, and 183%, respectively, when compared with pure PDMS. Besides, the linear ablation rate (LAR) of EAP@PDMS was greatly declined, which was 80.1% lower than that of pure PDMS, exhibiting excellent ablation resistance. This work opened an avenue toward developing flexible thermal protection coatings with excellent mechanical and ablative properties for aerospace applications.

This study harnessed polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-coated polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite (PDMS/PTFE) membranes for the separation of peppermint aromatic water in vapor state. The effects of the PDMS coatings’ morphology structure on the separation performance of the membrane were investigated. The vapor permeation process, selective-permeation mechanism, and membrane stability were explored. Results showed that the separation effect of the membranes depended on the degree of polymerization of PDMS coating. Almost no water molecules can pass through the membrane during the 6 h separation process, and the separation factor was as high as 668. The main pharmacodynamic components in the separated permeate were L-menthol, L-menthone, and menthyl acetate, accounting for 49.16 %, 26.3 %, and 5.46 %, respectively, which conformed to the standard of the European Pharmacopoeia . The parameters of membrane separation showed that the maximum permeability coefficients of L-menthol, L-menthone, menthyl acetate, and water were 40.80, 20.28, 4.211, and 0.3945, respectively, at 105 °C and 65 kPa. This finding indicated that the large difference in permeability coefficient was the key to the excellent selectivity of the PDMS/PTFE membrane for separating volatile pharmaceutical components and water molecules in the peppermint aromatic-water system.

Cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) have attracted great attention in optoelectronic devices due to their excellent optical properties, such as tunable emission wavelengths, long carrier lifetime, and narrow full width at half-maximum (fwhm). However, the poor stability of PNCs in water or humid environments greatly limits their wide-spreading applications. It is challenging to prepare PNCs with long-term stability in water. Herein, we successfully prepared CsPbBr3@PDMS microspheres by using the emulsification method. Due to the protection of the PDMS layer, the CsPbBr3@PDMS microspheres exhibit good optical properties and stability in water, acid, and alkali solutions. In addition, to expand the application of CsPbBr3 NCs in flexible optical devices and wearable devices, we first prepared stretchable, stable, and photoluminescent hydrogel with a CsPbBr3@PDMS microsphere (hydrogel/CsPbBr3@PDMS) by using the emulsification method. The hydrogel/CsPbBr3@PDMS elastomer exhibits good stability and stretchability. Furthermore, the hydrogel/CsPbBr3@PDMS elastomer retains bright green emission and stability under different mechanical deformations. This work provides a method to improve the CsPbBr3 PNCs with high stability by emulsification, which could also expand the applications of PNCs in underwater display, wearable, and flexible optoelectronic devices.

The icing of wind turbine blades leads to a decrease in output power, seriously jeopardizing the economic benefits and operational reliability of wind farms. Conventional deicing techniques require expensive equipment and consume a large amount of energy. Low-interfacial toughness coatings without energy dissipation are believed to be a highly potential passive deicing technology. However, the durability in service is facing challenges. Herein, low-interfacial toughness PDMS coatings were prepared by physical blending. Through the optimization of added plasticizers and SiO 2 , PDMS coatings with excellent large-scale deicing performance were obtained. The constant deicing force and ice adhesion strength were reduced to 14.69 N/cm and 12.63 kPa, respectively. Moreover, a systematic durability assessment of the PDMS coating was carried out to address the actual operating conditions of wind turbines. Fortunately, the results showed that the PDMS coating could withstand 200 icing/deicing cycles while maintaining constant deicing force and ice adhesion strength of less than 50 N/cm and 30 kPa, respectively. After long-term thermal aging (21 days), UV irradiation (42 days) and salt spray corrosion (20 days), the PDMS coating still retained superior icephobicity and outstanding large-scale deicing performance. This work contributes to the research and development of low-interfacial toughness materials for large-scale deicing applications on wind turbine blades.

Polymer coating post-treatment strategy of the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) membranes offers a versatile and feasible opportunity to restrict the intrinsic flexibility of ZIF framework and improve their gas separation performance. Herein, two different coating methods (Vacuum-assisted drip coating (VADC) and Static drip coating (SDC)) are utilized to prepare PDMS/ZIF-8 composite membranes based on ZIF-8 membranes with different compactness (high, medium and low-quality membrane) for investigating the effect of the contact area between PDMS layer and ZIF-8 membrane on C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 separation performance of PDMS/ZIF-8 composite membranes. The results reveal that the increase of the contact between PDMS layer and ZIF-8 membrane can enhance the contact confinement effect on the flexibility of ZIF-8 framework, resulting in a higher improvement of the separation performance for C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 of PDMS/ZIF-8 composite membranes with pressure. The prepared composite membrane based on VADC method showed a significant improvement in C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 separation factor (77–102) with slight increase in C 3 H 6 permeance (about 10%) at feed pressure of 7 bar. Moreover, this facile vacuum-assisted drip strategy attenuated the impact of the quality of ZIF-8 membranes on fabrication reproducibility of the composite membranes, which can withstand high pressure. Therefore, this work advances ZIF-8 membrane moving forward to industrial C 3 H 6 /C 3 H 8 separation.

Effectively separating wide types oil-water mixtures from immiscible to emulsions and in-situ recovering viscous crude oil is an urgent issue in alleviating water pollution and recycling oils. We developed a composite sponge of Cu-HHTP/Fe/PDMS@sponge with superhydrophobicity, excellent photothermal conversion ability and stability for multi-type oils separation from water environments. For light oil-water mixtures, the sponge showed super separation efficiency up to 99.95 % and reusability in the long-term; for oil-in-water emulsion, the separation efficiency was as high as 99.49 %; for recovery of viscous crude oil from water, the absorption capacity of the sponge reached 70 g/g and the continuous absorption rate was up to 6.56 g/min. After soaked in harsh chemical solutions and 500-cycle compression, the sponge still exhibited excellent flexibility and recoverability in viscous oil. The excellent performances of the multifunctional sponge were due to the construction of micro/nano-scale hierarchical structures by PDA and Cu-HHTP, protected with PDMS coating to improve both the hydrophobicity and stability. The introduction of Fe 3 O 4 with Cu-HHTP strengthened the photothermal conversion efficiency with the sponge surface temperature rapidly increased from room temperature to 102.4 °C under simulated sunlight exposure (1 kW/m 2 ), and resulted in the sponge can be remote-controlled magnetically. This simultaneous, fast and continuous oil-water separation and adsorption processes can be readily and widely applied for oily water purification and oil-spill cleanup.

In this study, the effective large-scale deicing based on the interfacial toughness-tuning strategy of an ultraviolet-curable PDMS coating was developed. Methacrylate groups were grafted on the hydroxyl-terminated PDMS molecular chains to endow PDMS the response to UV irradiation. Then the precursor was doped with different proportions of silicon dioxide nanoparticle (SiO 2 NP) to tune the interfacial toughness between the coating and the ice layer. The PDMS coating was fabricated through manual spraying and the polymerization under UV irradiation. The effects of the amounts of the methacrylate groups and SiO 2 NP on the deicing properties of UV-curable PDMS coatings were investigated systematically. In addition, it was found that the large-scale deicing performance of the PDMS coating with 10% SiO 2 NP improved when lowering the ambient temperature, which was mainly related to the increase of the shear modulus and thermal residual stress on the interface and might indicate attractive advantage on the extremely cold environment. Meanwhile, the durability and the adaptability to different substrates of the PDMS coating were also examined for the verification of the possible practical application. In summary, the effective large-scale deicing based on the interfacial toughness tuning of a UV-curable PDMS coating was achieved and the coating showed great potential for practice.

This paper uses a new method combining nanosecond laser processing technology and sol-gel to design and manufacture mechanically robust micro-nano structure and modified SiO 2 @PDMS coating on copper substrate. The superhydrophobic composite surface was successfully synthesized with a water contact angle of 159.5° and a sliding angle of 0.5°. The characterization of the prepared superhydrophobic surface #3 (laser-textured@SiO 2 @PDMS protective layer) was studied by optical profilometry, scanning electron microscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The composite structure of micron/nano and organic/inorganic 3D interwoven network can be observed to improve the hydrophobic, wear-resistant, and compressive properties of the substrate surface. FT-IR spectra fully indicate the presence of PDMS and Si (CH 3 ) grafted onto SiO 2 particles on the copper surface, and the presence of Si O and Si C detected by XPS fully proves the FT-IR results. In addition, self-cleaning, wear resistance, anti-icing, corrosion resistance , and NaCl deliquescence behavior were evaluated. The results show that surface #3 can efficiently remove contaminants within 200 s. In the anti-icing experiment, the delayed icing time and ice adhesion strength of surface #3 are 3.33 times and 1.99 % of that of the ordinary copper surface, respectively, which can make the icicle slide easily. In the electrochemical test, the corrosion current density decreased by an order of magnitude, and the corrosion inhibition efficiency reached 90.57 %. Based on its excellent self-cleaning, mechanical robustness, anti-icing, and anti-corrosion properties, we believe that the composite modified surface of the laser-textured@SiO 2 @PDMS protective layer designed and manufactured in this study is expected to be used in engineering fields such as refrigeration heat exchangers .
