“…Huang et al fabricated superhydrophobic paper using TiO 2 nanoparticles (10–20 nm in diameter) modified with 3‐(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (MPS). Cellulose fibers were treated with the modified nanoparticles already in the pulp, and thus any type of further treatments were not needed after preparation of the paper handsheets.…”

Wettability of a solid surface by a liquid plays an important role in several phenomena and applications, for example in adhesion, printing, and self‐cleaning. In particular, wetting of rough surfaces has attracted great scientific interest in recent decades. Superhydrophobic surfaces, which possess extraordinary water repelling properties due to their low surface energy and specific nanometer‐ and micrometer‐scale roughness, are of particular interest due to the great variety of potential applications ranging from self‐cleaning surfaces to microfluidic devices. In recent years, the potential of superhydrophobic cellulose‐based materials in the function of smart devices and functional clothing has been recognized, and in the past few years cellulose‐based materials have established themselves among the most frequently used substrates for superhydrophobic coatings. In this Review, over 40 different approaches to fabricate superhydrophobic coatings on cellulose‐based materials are discussed in detail. In addition to the anti‐wetting properties of the coatings, particular attention is paid to coating durability and other incorporated functionalities such as gas permeability, transparency, UV‐shielding, photoactivity, and self‐healing properties. Potential applications for the superhydrophobic cellulose‐based materials range from water‐ and stain‐repellent, self‐cleaning and breathable clothing to cheap and disposable lab‐on‐a‐chip devices made from renewable sources with reduced material consumption.

“…37 Many studies report various methods on how to prepare superhydrophobic surfaces. [38][39][40][41] The surfaces do not only exhibit the obvious water repellent properties but can also work as corrosion protection, 42,43 anti-icing coatings, [44][45][46] protection of electrical components 47 and extreme water resistance of papers 48 and fabrics. 49 Another aspect of industrial importance is the influence on adhesion and friction properties.…”

“…A wide variety of methods have been reported in the literature for the preparation of superhydrophobic paper, which can be classified into two main subcategories: wet chemical methods and dry methods . The wet chemical method is typically based on nanoparticle deposition on paper surface coming from a liquid suspension and coated with various techniques such as dip‐coating, liquid spray‐coating, and others . However, all those methods require organic solvents, thus there is an increasing interest in dry methods for the fabrication of superhydrophobic paper that can be more environmental friendly and versatile, such as liquid flame spray (LFS) and plasma processing …”

Superhydrophobic and to some extent oleophobic paper surfaces are prepared using atmospheric pressure plasma etching. A novel dielectric barrier discharge operating in helium-oxygen mixture is used to rapidly etch organic material from paper surface and create hierarchical topography and subsequently a thin fluorocarbon film is deposited to modify the surface energy. The enhancement of surface topography is achieved via the selective removal of organic matter over inorganic calcium carbonate (calcite) fillers that co-exist in paper. The process led to the fabrication of roll-off superhydrophobic paper with water contact angles >1508 and hysteresis <108 for all samples treated over 2 min with no deterioration of paper quality. Further treatment over 8 min resulted also in diiodomethane repellent surfaces. Figure 7. Superhydrophobic color-printed paper (a) and piece of an old document (b).
