“…[13][14][15] Moreover, TEOS-PDMS coatings can be modified with various additives, such as nano-calcium oxalate, TiO 2 nanoparticles, and innovative antifouling silica nanocontainers, to improve their properties. [16][17][18] Other applications of TEOS-PDMS coatings include enhancing the lifetime of PDMS devices through sol-gel coatings.…”
TEOS–PDMS coating was synthesized without any organic solvent. While it exhibited good durability in high temperatures and abrasion tests, further refinement is necessary to mitigate the decline in hydrophobicity resulting from washing cycles.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
