“…Thereafter, water, oil, coffee, and milk were used to contaminate the surface of the obtained fabric ( Figure S3). When these droplets dripped onto the fabric, they rolled down smoothly without fouling or wetting the WB fabric surface, indicating the superior antifouling ability of the obtained fabric, and the fabric satisfies the requirements for application in self-cleaning materials, outdoor-sportswear, and chemical-protective clothing [37][38][39].…”

Waterproof-breathable (WB) materials with outstanding waterproofness, breathability, and mechanical performance are critical in diverse consumer applications. Electrospun nanofibrous membranes with thin fiber diameters, small pore sizes, and high porosity have attracted significant attention in the WB fabric field. Hot-press treatment technology can induce the formation of inter-fiber fusion structures and hence improve the waterproofness and mechanical performance. By combining electrospinning and hot-press treatment technology, polyurethane/fluorinated polyurethane/thermoplastic polyurethane/alkylsilane-functionalized graphene (PU/FPU/TPU/FG) nanofiber WB fabric was fabricated. Subsequently, the morphologies, porous structure, hydrostatic pressure, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), and stress–strain behavior of the nanofiber WB fabric were systematically investigated. The introduction of the hydrophobic FG sheet structure and the formation of the inter-fiber fusion structure greatly improved not only the waterproofness but also the mechanical performance of the nanofiber WB fabric. The optimized PU/FPU/TPU-50/FG-1.5 WB fabric exhibited an excellent comprehensive performance: a high hydrostatic pressure of 80.4 kPa, a modest WVTR of 7.6 kg m−2 d−1, and a robust tensile stress of 127.59 MPa, which could be used to achieve various applications. This work not only highlights the preparation of materials, but also provides a high-performance nanofiber WB fabric with huge potential application prospects in various fields.

“…In addition, a structure or performance that is difficult to demonstrate by conventional membrane fabrication methods can be implemented with hydrogel or aerogel membranes. This novel membrane structure can be fabricated using many combinations of nanomaterials such as graphene, polymer, metal, metal-oxide, and metal-organic framework, and can be applied in various situations according to the application conditions because there are multiple methods such as polymerization, ultraviolet curing, sol-gel reaction, and hydrothermal reaction to form a hydrogel or aerogel [ 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 ].…”

Membranes are helpful tools to prevent airborne and waterborne pathogenic microorganisms, including viruses and bacteria. A membrane filter can physically separate pathogens from air or water. Moreover, incorporating antiviral and antibacterial nanoparticles into the matrix of membrane filters can render composite structures capable of killing pathogenic viruses and bacteria. Such membranes incorporated with antiviral and antibacterial nanoparticles have a great potential for being applied in various application scenarios. Therefore, in this perspective article, we attempt to explore the fundamental mechanisms and recent progress of designing antiviral membrane filters, challenges to be addressed, and outlook.

“…Researches on superhydrophobic surfaces with a water contact angle (WCA) of more than 150 • [1] have been widely investigated due to its great potential application in the areas of corrosion protection [2,3], self-cleaning [4,5], oil/water separation [6,7], etc. Water repellency is dependent on the microstructure and chemistry of the surfaces.…”

Novel fluorinated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) acrylic copolymers were synthesized by the radical solution polymerization. The superhydrophobic coating was prepared using a one-step breath figure method. Chemical constitution, morphology, hydrophobicity, and anticorrosion ability of as-prepared coatings were investigated by the corresponding equipment. The addition of proper fluorinated POSS can synchronously promote the formation of the micro-nano convex structure and the enrichment of fluorinated groups on the surface. Compared to commercial acrylic coating, the fluorinated POSS coating presented enhanced anticorrosion performance. The impedance was the highest and the corrosion current density was the lowest for superhydrophobic coating with 25 wt % fluorinated POSS.
