Photocurable Thiol-Ene/Nanocellulose Elastomeric Composites for Bioinspired and Fluorine-Free Superhydrophobic Surfaces

Artificially prepared superhydrophobic surfaces toward a self-cleaning "lotus effect" and anticontamination performance have become critically important in the past few years. However, most approaches to create the required topology with a hierarchical rou ...

Assessment of capillary phenomena in liquid composite molding

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Feyza Karasu Kiliç, Cem Tekin

The interplay between capillary and viscous forces plays a significant role for optimal part quality in fiber-reinforced composites manufactured by Liquid Composite Molding (LCM); these are however difficult to analyze during flow. Two approaches are propo ...

Self-cleaning and wear-resistant polymer nanocomposite surfaces

Yves Leterrier, Luca Alois Egon Müller, Feyza Karasu Kiliç

Superhydrophobic self-cleaning and wear-resistant nanocomposite surfaces were produced by mimicking the hierarchical structure of the lotus leaf using a combination of rapid self-assembly and a UV nano-imprint lithography (UVNIL) process with a silicone ma ...

Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Planarization and Water Vapor Barrier Coatings on Cellulose Nanofibrils Substrates

Yves Leterrier, Feyza Karasu Kiliç

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) can be produced in the form of thin, transparent and flexible films. However, the permeability of such materials to oxygen and water vapor is very sensitive to moisture, which limits their potential for a variety of packaging an ...

Bio-Inspired Fluorine-Free Self-Cleaning Polymer Coatings

Yves Leterrier, Sara Dalle Vacche, Lionel François Wasser, Feyza Karasu Kiliç, Alessandra Vitale

Bio-inspired fluorine-free and self-cleaning polymer coatings were developed using a combination of self-assembly and UV-printing processes. Nasturtium and lotus leaves were selected as natural template surfaces. A UV-curable acrylate oligomer and three ac ...

A Facile in Situ and UV Printing Process for Bioinspired Self-Cleaning Surfaces

Yves Leterrier, Sara Dalle Vacche, Marina Aymara González Lazo, Ioannis Katrantzis, Feyza Karasu Kiliç

A facile in situ and UV printing process was demonstrated to create self-cleaning synthetic replica of natural petals and leaves. The process relied on the spontaneous migration of a fluorinated acrylate surfactant (PFUA) within a low-shrinkage acrylated h ...
