Recent Studies on Fluorinated Silica Nanometer-Sized Particles

Abstract: Since initially being reported, fluorinated silica nanometer-sized particles (F-SiNPs) have gained much interest in the scientific community, due to their unique properties. These properties, include, low surface energies, increased mechanical strength, thermal robustness, and chemical resistance, and are a direct result of the incorporation of fluorine with a nanometer-sized silica network. This review aims to summarize the synthetic methods that have, and are still, being utilized to prepare these specialize… Show more

“…This demonstrates that using FC-silane SiO 2 NPs is essential for the preparation of the superhydrophobic surface. There are many reports on the utilization of FC-silane SiO 2 NPs to produce superhydrophobic surfaces [23][24][25][26][27]. The role of TiO 2 NPs was clarified according to the SEM analysis of the FC-silane SiO 2 NPs/epoxy resin sample (Figure S4).…”

“…According to the Cassie-Baxter model [180], the hydrophobic behavior of the material surface is a synergic effect of the chemical properties and the roughness of the material surface. Although silicon/fluorine materials are known as very low surface energy materials, with remarkable properties, such as weather and corrosion resistance, and refractory and oxidation stability [181], the high price of silicon/fluorine-modified coatings, and their difficult elaboration process, limits their applications. A more economical method to fabricate a formulation based on fluorine resins and SiO 2 nanoparticles yielded performance comparable to other commercially available systems.…”

“…Since fluorine atoms with strong electronegativity are strongly bonded to the carbon atoms, the chemically stable fluoroalkyl side groups limit others atoms to traverse and wedge into the Si O Si main chain, playing a "shielding effect." 11 Therefore, the fluorinated polysiloxanes exhibit excellent chemical resistance. In addition, the replacement of hydrogen atoms by fluorine atoms not only forms a strong C F bond, but also strengthens the side C C chain, which brings the fluorinated polysiloxanes with unique properties including good mechanical behavior, excellent thermal stability, low-refractive index, predominant hydrophobicity, and oleophobicity.…”

“…Due to the close atomic radii of fluorine and hydrogen atoms, the substitution of fluorine atoms for the hydrogen atoms in the side carbon chain makes the fluorinated polysiloxane a unique “pseudo effect.” Fluorine atoms just wrap the carbon chain tightly, putting a suitable “coat” on the carbon chain. Since fluorine atoms with strong electronegativity are strongly bonded to the carbon atoms, the chemically stable fluoroalkyl side groups limit others atoms to traverse and wedge into the SiOSi main chain, playing a “shielding effect.” 11 Therefore, the fluorinated polysiloxanes exhibit excellent chemical resistance. In addition, the replacement of hydrogen atoms by fluorine atoms not only forms a strong CF bond, but also strengthens the side CC chain, which brings the fluorinated polysiloxanes with unique properties including good mechanical behavior, excellent thermal stability, low‐refractive index, predominant hydrophobicity, and oleophobicity 12–14 .…”
