We report a simple and versatile approach to creating a highly transparent superhydrophobic surface with dual-scale roughness on the nanoscale. 3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTS)-functionalized silica nanoparticles of two different sizes (100 and 20 nm) were sequentially dip coated onto different substrates, followed by thermal annealing. After hydrophobilization of the nanoparticle film with (heptadecafluoro-1,1,2,2-tetrahydrodecyl)trichlorosilane for 30 min or longer, the surface became superhydrophobic with an advancing water contact angle of greater than 160° and a water droplet (10 μL) roll-off angle of less than 5°. The order of nanoparticles dip coated onto the silicon wafer (i.e., 100 nm first and 20 nm second or vice versa) did not seem to have a significant effect on the resulting apparent water contact angle. In contrast, when the substrate was dip coated with monoscale nanoparticles (20, 50, and 100 nm), a highly hydrophobic surface (with an advancing water contact angle of up to 143°) was obtained, and the degree of hydrophobicity was found to be dependent on the particle size and concentration of the dip-coating solution. UV-vis spectra showed nearly 100% transmission in the visible region from the glass coated with dual-scale nanoparticles, similar to the bare one. The coating strategy was versatile, and superhydrophobicity was obtained on various substrates, including Si, glass, epoxy resin, and fabrics. Thermal annealing enhanced the stability of the nanoparticle coating, and superhydrophobicity was maintained against prolonged exposure to UV light under ambient conditions.
