Microstructure of SCF

The microstructure of the fabric is unchanged before

and after the graft polymerization.

It is a suitable use for SCF, as a textile, where the

holes between bundles are retained to permit air

passage.

2A condition: without; 5A condition: 0.027% active chlorine

0.15% standard

WOB detergent;

49oC, 40 ± 2 rpm

After laundering durability test

The superhydrophobicity

is well kept after 50

accelerated laundering

cycles, equivalent to 250

commercial launderings

or home-machine

launderings.

Also showed a particular oleophilicity, where the

organic liquids with surface tension lower than

30 mN/cm can spread out quickly on SCF.

Antibacteria Effect

Superbugs

Step 1. Electrostatic interaction

of the cationic portion with the

negatively charged bacterial

cell wall.

Step 2. Lipophilic groups disturb

cell membranes, resulting in

leakage of intracellular

substances and cell death.

Antibacteria Mechanism

After 150 laundering cycles

Laundering durability lies in the formation of covalent bonds
