仿生材料是從生物體獲得啟示, 通過模仿生物某個(gè)方面的特異功能, 實(shí)現(xiàn)材料的功能化設(shè)計(jì), 并可能最終超越自然[1]。受自然界“荷葉效應(yīng)”的啟發(fā), 超疏水現(xiàn)象引起了研究者的廣泛關(guān)注。靜態(tài)接觸角大于150°且滾動(dòng)角小于10°的表面被定義其具有超疏水特性[2]。其表面浸潤性理論依據(jù)由Young’s方程[3]發(fā)展到Wenzel模型[4]最終變?yōu)镃assie-Baxter模型[5], 目前所報(bào)道的超疏水模型都基于Cassie-Baxter模型的改進(jìn)。從Web of Science以超疏水為主題發(fā)表的論文數(shù)量顯示, 超疏水領(lǐng)域依然是研究熱點(diǎn), 并且文章數(shù)量呈現(xiàn)遞增趨勢(shì), 研究者普遍認(rèn)為超疏水表面具有自清潔、防覆冰、耐腐蝕和油水分離等方面的潛在應(yīng)用價(jià)值[6-7]。本文依照時(shí)間發(fā)展順序?qū)Ψ律鷦?dòng)植物的典型研究論文進(jìn)行梳理, 對(duì)近期的研究成果進(jìn)行綜述, 對(duì)多種超疏水涂層的制備方法的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)進(jìn)行評(píng)論及總結(jié), 同時(shí)對(duì)超疏水涂層的應(yīng)用前景進(jìn)行概述, 說明現(xiàn)階段研究存在的問題, 并展望今后超疏水領(lǐng)域的研究發(fā)展趨勢(shì)。

1 仿生超疏水材料的發(fā)展

大自然為人類提供了取之不盡的靈感源泉(圖 1), 1997年Barthlott和Neinhuis[8-9]通過觀察分析荷葉表面的微觀形貌, 提出該表面憎水性是由毛狀體、表皮褶皺和蠟狀晶體構(gòu)成的表面粗糙微結(jié)構(gòu)結(jié)合疏水性的表皮蠟狀物而引起的, 粗糙/蠟質(zhì)的荷葉表面不僅具有拒水性, 而且對(duì)顆粒污染物具有低粘附性。通過對(duì)荷葉、稻葉表面微觀結(jié)構(gòu)的進(jìn)一步研究, 微米/納米級(jí)復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)被認(rèn)為是獲得人工超疏水表面的關(guān)鍵[2]。為實(shí)現(xiàn)多功能化超疏水表面, 研究者又相繼報(bào)道了多種仿生材料, 其典型性研究如: 實(shí)現(xiàn)飛檐走壁的壁虎腳部[10], 呈現(xiàn)疏水–親水交替界面的沙漠甲蟲背部[11], 可以輕盈地在水面上行走的水黽腳部[12]。隨著仿生超疏水表面的發(fā)展, 研究者進(jìn)一步報(bào)道了抗反射和光學(xué)透明的仿生蟬翅膀[13], 仿生蝴蝶翅膀的定向粘附性[14], 具有干式防霧性能的仿生蚊蟲復(fù)眼[15], 具有高粘附力超疏水狀態(tài)的“花瓣效應(yīng)”[16], 仿生魚鱗狀超疏水表面在水下的自清潔特性和減阻功能[17], 可實(shí)現(xiàn)低摩擦流體運(yùn)輸?shù)姆律比~萍超疏水表面[18-19], 仿生楊樹葉高反射超疏水白色涂層[20], 仿生蛤蜊殼高能無機(jī)涂層在水下具有低粘附力的超疏水狀態(tài)[21], 仿生超疏水企鵝羽毛的抗凍效果[22]等。

隨著多種仿生植物、動(dòng)物的超疏水表面仿生材料的涌現(xiàn), 具有特殊浸潤性及特殊應(yīng)用前景的仿生材料被相繼報(bào)道(表1)。江雷課題組報(bào)道的仿生蜘蛛絲[23]、仙人掌脊柱[24]和瓶子草毛狀體[25]均可實(shí)現(xiàn)水滴的收集及其定向傳輸過程。仿生鯊魚皮減阻表面所引發(fā)的減阻涂層用于醫(yī)療、船舶和工業(yè)等領(lǐng)域的應(yīng)用研究[26-27]。通過仿生跳蟲表面的結(jié)果證明了膠原蛋白表面可抵抗多種液體的浸潤以及可承受較高壓力的環(huán)境, 指出仿生無脊柱動(dòng)物表面在抗磨損低摩擦領(lǐng)域具有應(yīng)用前景[28]。通過對(duì)燕鷗鳥嘴部呈現(xiàn)的低氣流阻力的研究, 提出一種可能減阻的方法[29]。具有響應(yīng)性自補(bǔ)充潤滑劑現(xiàn)象的仿生蚯蚓潤滑涂層對(duì)于固體環(huán)境中用于減磨、抗磨和自清潔涂層的設(shè)計(jì)與發(fā)展具有推動(dòng)作用[30]。另外, 通過對(duì)仿生豬籠草的研究[31-33]掀起了研究者對(duì)滑液注入式多孔界面(SLIPS)[34]的關(guān)注與研究, 其光滑各向異性的兩親特征啟發(fā)了研究者制備滑液面針對(duì)疏冰、抗冰的研究。

2 超疏水涂層的制備方法

通過模擬自然界植物、動(dòng)物表面的浸潤性特點(diǎn),微納結(jié)構(gòu)的構(gòu)建及其低表面能物質(zhì)的修飾依舊是現(xiàn)階段制備人工超疏水表面并加以應(yīng)用的主要方法(表2)。

2.1 刻蝕修飾法

刻蝕修飾法是最簡單的實(shí)現(xiàn)人工超疏水表面的方法, 該方法通過化學(xué)濕法刻蝕[35-39]、激光刻 蝕[40-44]、機(jī)械加工處理[45-46]等方式構(gòu)建微米/納米級(jí)粗糙結(jié)構(gòu), 然后采用低表面能物質(zhì)對(duì)刻蝕后的粗糙結(jié)構(gòu)表面進(jìn)行超疏水修飾。目前的研究結(jié)果表明, 刻蝕修飾法制得的超疏水表面機(jī)械耐久性較差, 表面的微米/納米級(jí)粗糙結(jié)構(gòu)很容易遭到破壞, 而且采用該方法制備可控厚度的超疏水涂層難度較大, 導(dǎo)致其未來應(yīng)用將面對(duì)較大挑戰(zhàn)。

2.2 電化學(xué)法

電化學(xué)法是在外加恒定電流或恒定電壓的情況下, 通過控制一定的工藝參數(shù)制備超疏水涂層的方法。早期研究者采用陽極氧化法[47-48]制備超疏水涂層, 金屬試樣通過陽極氧化過程構(gòu)建微米/納米級(jí)粗糙結(jié)構(gòu), 然后采用低表能物質(zhì)對(duì)其進(jìn)行超疏水修飾, 最終在金屬表面制得超疏水膜, 該方法獲得的超疏水涂層通常較薄且機(jī)械耐久性較差。隨著研究的不斷深入, 研究者采用電鍍、電化學(xué)沉積的方式[49-54]制備多層疊加的超疏水涂層, 該涂層有利于實(shí)現(xiàn)超疏水在腐蝕防護(hù)領(lǐng)域的工程應(yīng)用。隨著電化學(xué)沉 積法的進(jìn)一步發(fā)展, 研究者采用電化學(xué)納米共沉積法[55]制備超疏水涂層, 采用電化學(xué)等離子處理結(jié)合電化學(xué)沉積法[56]提升超疏水涂層的機(jī)械耐久性, 以及采用水熱法結(jié)合電化學(xué)沉積法[57-58]制備超疏水涂層, 該方法將納米粒子均勻地沉積于基體表面, 制得的超疏水涂層均勻致密, 機(jī)械耐久性得到一定的提升。

2.3 物理、化學(xué)沉積法

為增強(qiáng)超疏水表面的機(jī)械耐久性及其多種基體適用性, 研究者發(fā)現(xiàn)多層結(jié)構(gòu)的超疏水涂層有利于實(shí)現(xiàn)持久的超疏水性。當(dāng)表層超疏水膜遭到磨損甚至破壞時(shí), 暴露的新表面與表層超疏水膜基本相同, 從而提高了超疏水表面的機(jī)械耐久性。早期研究者采用物理氣相沉積法(PVD)、化學(xué)氣相沉積法(CVD)[59-61], 為了實(shí)現(xiàn)大規(guī)模化、工藝簡單、低成本、可操作性強(qiáng)的超疏水涂層, 基于溶膠–凝膠法的浸涂或刷涂的方式[62-65]受到研究者廣泛的關(guān)注, 為了進(jìn)一步提高涂層與基體的結(jié)合力, 噴涂固化的方式[66-70]得到更為廣泛的應(yīng)用。

2.4 其他方法

除上述制備方法外, 蠟燭燒蝕過程中的納米級(jí)碳黑附著于基體表面, 從而獲得超疏水表面[71-73]; 采用機(jī)械滾動(dòng)法通過電火花加工和碳納米顆粒包覆的方式在金屬基體上制得耐久性較好的超疏水表面[74]; 采用超疏水改性SiO2結(jié)合環(huán)氧樹脂的固化成膜作用, 通過自組裝法制得超疏水涂層[75-76], 其中熱壓方式改進(jìn)自組裝法制得了結(jié)合力較好的超疏水涂層[77]; 通過對(duì)環(huán)氧樹脂進(jìn)行疏水改性, 經(jīng)成膜固化后制得耐久性較好的超疏水涂層[78-79]。但目前 的研究方法中, 機(jī)械耐久性相對(duì)較好的超疏水涂層普遍存在可加工范圍小、工藝復(fù)雜和制備成本高等問題。

3 超疏水涂層的潛在應(yīng)用

隨著超疏水仿生材料的發(fā)展及其制備方法的多樣化, 研究者關(guān)注超疏水表面的功能化應(yīng)用研究, 擬將所制備的超疏水涂層應(yīng)用于日常生活、工業(yè)生產(chǎn)、軍事發(fā)展等領(lǐng)域。

3.1 自清潔

超疏水自清潔性能是研究較早的應(yīng)用性能之一, 其超疏水涂層在戶外玻璃、太陽能電池板、紡織品和外墻涂料等領(lǐng)域具有較高的應(yīng)用研究價(jià)值(圖2)。由于水滴在超疏水表面的極不浸潤性, 當(dāng)水滴與超疏水表面接觸時(shí), 水滴在重力或輕微外力的作用下滾動(dòng)滑落而離開表面, 因此, 超疏水表面的污染物或某些細(xì)菌隨著水滴的滾動(dòng)離開, 從而達(dá)到表面自清潔的目的。現(xiàn)階段研究存在的問題集中在高透明、耐久性的自清潔涂層, 近期也有研究表明[80-83], 增加超疏水納米粒子的含量有助于提高涂層的持久性超疏水, 但涂層的透明度同時(shí)下降。因此, 研究者致力于開發(fā)高透明/耐久性一體化的超疏水自清潔薄膜涂層。

3.2 防覆冰

目前的超疏水防覆冰領(lǐng)域主要體現(xiàn)在三個(gè)方面: 減少液滴與界面長時(shí)間接觸(小液滴在過冷條件下的反彈)、降低凝固點(diǎn)及延遲結(jié)冰時(shí)間(微小冷凝液滴的自跳動(dòng)現(xiàn)象)和構(gòu)建疏冰低結(jié)冰粘附力表面(滑液面防冰)。當(dāng)固–液界面出現(xiàn)結(jié)冰現(xiàn)象時(shí), 表面結(jié)冰過程可用開爾文方程和克拉伯龍方程分析小液滴的分類形核理論和抑制形核能理論[84]來分析該表面的防覆冰能力(圖3)。

超疏水表面普遍存在小液滴彈跳現(xiàn)象[87-89], 其原因?yàn)樵獾揭旱巫矒魰r(shí)的小液滴動(dòng)能不易轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)槌杷砻鎯?nèi)能[90-91], 超疏水涂層的表面張力較小(圖4)。因此, 當(dāng)?shù)蜏丨h(huán)境下的超疏水表面出現(xiàn)彈跳現(xiàn)象時(shí), 彈跳的液滴于結(jié)冰形核前離開超疏水表面, 從而減緩界面的過冷傳輸過程, 達(dá)到防覆冰的目的。Quéré課題組[92]研究表明, 液滴以20~230 cm/s的速度撞擊超疏水表面時(shí), 液滴和界面的接觸時(shí)間僅與液滴半徑和界面張力有關(guān), 與撞擊速度無關(guān)。

冷凝在微納結(jié)構(gòu)內(nèi)部的小液滴受限于粗糙結(jié)構(gòu)而導(dǎo)致其形狀改變, 小液滴匯集結(jié)合后的液滴自由能過剩, 即表面自由能大于液滴平衡態(tài)自由能, 最終液滴在低表能的超疏水表面彈起或滾動(dòng)離開[93], 宏觀表現(xiàn)為小液滴連續(xù)的自跳動(dòng)現(xiàn)象(圖5)。通過控制微納結(jié)構(gòu)的尺寸變化及其不同的結(jié)構(gòu)粗糙度, 可提高超疏水表面的自跳動(dòng)防冰效果[94-96]。超疏水涂層的表面能較小且靜態(tài)接觸角較大, 導(dǎo)致液滴與超疏水表面的接觸面積較小。根據(jù)小液滴的分類形核理論和抑制形核能[84], 控制超疏水表面的粗糙度小于且無限接近于臨界晶核的最小半徑值[97], 此時(shí), 超疏水表面具有結(jié)冰延遲效果[98-99]。

覆冰與物體表面存在范德華力、氫鍵作用和靜電引力(表3)。界面接觸時(shí)范德華力普遍存在且與接觸面面積呈現(xiàn)線性關(guān)系, 具有親水基團(tuán)表面的氫鍵作用較強(qiáng), 靜電引力是三種作用力中最重要的影響結(jié)冰粘附力因素, 材料的介電常數(shù)越低, 覆冰的靜電引力作用越小[100]。研究表明, 低表面能的超疏水表面可降低覆冰的粘附力[101-107], 但由于超疏水表面形貌和微納結(jié)構(gòu)的差異, 具體的防結(jié)冰及降低覆冰粘附力的機(jī)理研究還有待完善。

受仿生豬籠草研究的啟發(fā)[34], 研究者構(gòu)建多孔結(jié)構(gòu)水潤滑層[108-109]以實(shí)現(xiàn)表面疏冰、抗冰的效果(圖6)。其構(gòu)建過程中應(yīng)滿足三個(gè)要求: 水潤滑層液體與外來浸潤液體不相容; 水潤滑層與基體的吸附力優(yōu)于外來浸潤液體在其滑液面的化學(xué)親和力; 保證水潤滑層液體可以持久地貯存在多孔結(jié)構(gòu)中, 且化學(xué)穩(wěn)定性較好。

3.3 耐腐蝕

提高金屬的耐蝕防護(hù)能力一直是工程應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域亟待解決的問題, 超疏水涂層由于其超強(qiáng)的憎水性特點(diǎn), 為解決該問題提供了創(chuàng)新性思路?；贑assie-Baxter模型[5]的空氣層理論及其微納結(jié)構(gòu)的毛細(xì)效應(yīng), 使得超疏水表面和腐蝕介質(zhì)之間存在大量的空氣層, 這些絕緣的空氣層可阻止或抑制離子的遷移, 在金屬基體與腐蝕介質(zhì)之間形成阻隔屏障。研究表明, 超疏水表面可改善腐蝕電位正向移動(dòng), 腐蝕電流密度至少提高兩個(gè)數(shù)量級(jí), 金屬的抗耐蝕能力得到提高[110]?，F(xiàn)階段超疏水耐蝕涂層主要采用電化學(xué)沉積及其水熱反應(yīng)制備多層疊加結(jié)構(gòu)、摻雜緩蝕劑結(jié)合氟硅烷修飾的化學(xué)轉(zhuǎn)化膜, 以及采用超疏水納米粒子固化成膜反應(yīng)等方式(圖7)。長時(shí)間暴露于腐蝕介質(zhì)中引起的憎水性下降是導(dǎo)致超疏水涂層耐蝕性衰減的主要原因, 因此, 具有自修復(fù)性能的超疏水耐蝕涂層[111]將成為未來的研究趨勢(shì)。

3.4 油水分離

油水分離主要采用超疏水/親油性的分離膜和超親水/疏油性的分離膜, 超疏水表面在油水分離中的應(yīng)用主要通過重力或外力的驅(qū)動(dòng)作用, 油穿過分離膜且水被攔截在分離膜表面, 從而達(dá)到油水分離的目的。江雷課題組[112-113]最早報(bào)道了超疏水油水分離膜, 通過重力驅(qū)動(dòng)作用實(shí)現(xiàn)高通量的超疏水油水分離, 擬解決工業(yè)含油廢水及原油泄露的再收集問題(圖8)。目前超疏水油水分離膜的主要實(shí)現(xiàn)形式有金屬網(wǎng)[114]、細(xì)沙子[115]、濾紙[116]、纖維織物[117]、海綿[118]等, 一般情況下油密度低于水密度, 油漂浮在水表面, 因此需要在外力驅(qū)動(dòng)下完成油水分離。金屬網(wǎng)為支撐的超疏水油水分離膜具有較好的油通量, 但網(wǎng)孔之間的間隙過大而導(dǎo)致油水分離率嚴(yán)重下降; 超疏水改性的濾紙和細(xì)沙子很難實(shí)現(xiàn)大規(guī)?；退蛛x; 超疏水改性的海綿和纖維織物具有相對(duì)較好的油水分離效果, 但分離膜表面耐污性較差, 多次循環(huán)使用后出現(xiàn)油水分離率下降, 長期的耐溶劑性有待提高。

4 總結(jié)與展望

本文通過對(duì)經(jīng)典仿生動(dòng)植物研究的梳理, 總結(jié)人工超疏水表面的制備方法, 報(bào)道超疏水應(yīng)用研究現(xiàn)狀?，F(xiàn)階段超疏水涂層趨向于多功能一體化發(fā)展, 除經(jīng)常報(bào)道的應(yīng)用性能外, 受光、電、磁等外部刺激而引起的智能響應(yīng)涂層更受研究者關(guān)注。目前已有研究報(bào)道磁性超疏水涂層在磁場(chǎng)驅(qū)動(dòng)下定向油水分離, 磁性隱身超疏水涂層擬應(yīng)用于提高戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)的機(jī)動(dòng)性和突防能力, 同時(shí)超疏水阻燃紙的研究改變了人們的傳統(tǒng)思維, 諸如此類超疏水研究成果將對(duì)未來的人類生活、工業(yè)發(fā)展和國防科技等領(lǐng)域帶來巨大改變。

隨著該領(lǐng)域研究不斷深入, 存在的挑戰(zhàn)、爭議和盲區(qū)也日趨明顯。目前報(bào)道的大多數(shù)機(jī)械耐久性超疏水涂層仍停留在實(shí)驗(yàn)室階段, 超疏水涂層的抗老化性和化學(xué)穩(wěn)定性有待進(jìn)一步提高, 其制備方法普遍存在工藝復(fù)雜、成本高、無法大規(guī)?；a(chǎn)等缺點(diǎn)。

1) 自修復(fù)超疏水涂層為提高其耐久性提供了新的方向, 通過受損自發(fā)或外界刺激引起的響應(yīng)作用, 誘導(dǎo)愈合劑修復(fù)受損的超疏水表面并恢復(fù)表面原有浸潤特性。采用柔性、軟質(zhì)、彈性等材料作為功能性疏水添加劑, 減緩超疏水表面的摩擦、磨損, 增強(qiáng)涂層的機(jī)械耐久性。

2) 超疏水防覆冰涂層的動(dòng)力學(xué)研究仍需完善。微納結(jié)構(gòu)、低表面能、小液滴結(jié)冰形核理論、結(jié)冰界面的能量轉(zhuǎn)化和表面覆冰粘附力的關(guān)系需進(jìn)一步分析, 并給出動(dòng)力學(xué)轉(zhuǎn)化過程。
