Abstract
AbstractSuperhydrophobic materials, particularly those with high thermal stability, are critically important. Traditional polymer‐based superhydrophobic materials are not sufficiently stable to work at relatively high temperatures. Herein we have developed a facile approach to synthesize superhydrophobic inorganic ceramics by silane chemical functionalization to metal oxide nanowires to form metal‐oxygen‐silicon chemical bonds via a silane vapor coating technique. The very high thermally stable superhydrophobic materials have generated and can maintain a superhydrophobic surface at temperatures as high as 390 °C, 490 °C and 500 °C for K2‐xMn8O16, ZnO and TiO2 metal oxide nanowires, respectively. Once the temperature point is exceeded, the superhydrophobic surface becomes superhydrophilic and but can be switched back to superhydrophobic by a silane vapor coat, indicating a reversible surface property.
