Reactive amphiphilic hollow SiO<sub>2</sub> Janus nanoparticles for durable superhydrophobic coating
Yan Bao, Yuanxia Zhang, Jianzhong Ma
Abstract
Janus nanoparticles, but also resolves the difficulties in constructing long-lived superhydrophobic coatings on fragile surfaces by existing methods. Meanwhile, the present study also suggests a potential way to translocate functional Janus microcapsules, which may give some significant suggestions on the future nanoparticle design for drug delivery and energy storage.
