“…These films are used for flexible electronics in flexible photovoltaics or sensors, fabricating membranes, e.g., to filter water from dust, salt, or heavy metals, or anticounterfeiting materials. , The macroscopic properties required for these applications are inherently determined by the hybrid materials’ morphologies; for example, they influence surface energy. The surface energy directly affects the usability of the porous thin films because it influences the surface’s water adhesion and solvent imbibition properties of porous films. , Depending on the material’s topology, the morphology changes during a treatment. , Both the deposition of colloids and the annealing process above a critical temperature alter the morphology of a material . Therefore, incorporating colloids into the network of porous cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) is suitable for modifying water adhesion .…”
