Abstract:

In order to improve the durability of superhydrophobic fabrics, a polyester (PET) fabric was treated with strong adhesion substances including tea polyphenols (Tps), Hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDS) and FeSO4·7H2O. Surface morphology, chemical composition, superhydrophobic stability and oil-water separation performance of the prepared PET fabric were tested and characterized. The results show that when Tps is 2 g/L, HDS is 150 μL/L and FeSO4·7H2O is 6 g/L, the prepared PET fabric showed good superhydrophobic property with water contact angle of 163.1° and the scrolling angle of 3.5°. The treated fabric shows good stability under the conditions of water washing, mechanical wear, mechanical friction, UV irradiation, simulated seawater, acid-alkaline and organic reagents. In the cyclic test for oil-water separation, the separation efficiency remains above 95%. The preparation process of superhydrophobic PET fabric is simple and has good stability, which has broad application prospects in the field of oil-water separation.

Key words: polyester fabric, tea polyphenols, superhydrophobic property, hexadecyltrimethoxysilane, oil-water separation
