Fabrication of a Large‐Area Hierarchical Structure Array by Combining Replica Molding and Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Etching

Abstract: A novel approach to produce a large‐area hierarchical structure array is presented. The method combines replica molding and atmospheric pressure plasma (APP) etching processes. Liquid blends consisting of siliconized silsesquioxane acrylate (Si‐SSQA), polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate (PEGDMA), and photoinitiator are used as roughness formable materials during APP etching. Microstructures composed of the Si‐SSQA/PEGDMA mixtures are fabricated by replica molding. Nanoroughness is realized on the microstructure… Show more

“…For example, the liner surface of type IV vessels are not limited by vacuum chamber sizes. [ 35 ] Therefore, the most significant advantage of this approach is simplicity of combining it with mass production applications.

“…In some cases, however, the replicated hydrophobic surfaces were used to fabricate super-hydrophobic surfaces in a subsequent step, such as applying a nanocomposite coating, 56 using plasma treatment, 58 or depositing a self-assembled monolayer. 7,59 These various investigations, although falling beyond the scope of the present review, have contributed to our understanding of the methods for obtaining superhydrophobic surfaces via replication-based techniques.…”

“…These unsuccessful attempts to achieve superhydrophobicity via replication can be explained by an inappropriate selection of structure size, a low aspect ratio of the structures, and demolding issues that resulted in a poor replication quality. In some cases, however, the replicated hydrophobic surfaces were used to fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces in a subsequent step, such as applying a nanocomposite coating, using plasma treatment, or depositing a self-assembled monolayer. , These various investigations, although falling beyond the scope of the present review, have contributed to our understanding of the methods for obtaining superhydrophobic surfaces via replication-based techniques.…”

“…Such surfaces require a low surface energy ultrathin layer combined with appropriate hierarchical micro–nanoroughness (i.e., dual-scale topography). Atmospheric pressure plasma etching/nanotexturing shows great potential to induce the proper hierarchical topography that will lead to superhydrophobic behavior after coating with a low surface energy thin film or monolayer. , We have previously proved this potential using paper as substrate, which is a composite-like material composed of cellulose fibers and inorganic (calcite) particles. After oxygen-rich plasma etching in atmospheric pressure we realized an enhanced surface topography and superhydrophobicity, due to the selective etching of organic over inorganic phase followed by deposition of a Teflon-like ultrathin film …”
