METHOD FOR FORMING A HYDROPHOBIC LAYER

摘要

The invention relates to a method for forming a film-forming hydrophobic layer on a substrate, which method includes: forming an aqueous suspension of cellulose nanofibers, CNF; forming, in water and with a water-immiscible solvent having an evaporation temperature below that of water, a cationic nanoemulsion of a substance forming covalent bonds with the cellulose; mixing the suspension and the nanoemulsion such as to produce a mixture resulting from an adsorption of said substance by the CNF; coating a substrate with said mixture; and proceeding to an annealing suitable for grafting said substance to the CNF.
