PRODUCTION OF SUPERHYDROPHOBIC FIBROUS SUBSTRATES

摘要

Process for the production of a superhydrophobic fibrous substrate. The process involves preparing hydrophobic core-shell microparticles, the microparticles having a core of polyurethane and a shell of polydimethylsiloxane or of polybutadiene, then depositing a liquid suspension of the microparticles on the fibrous substrate. Superhydrophobic fibrous substrates of this kind are useful for the manufacture of textiles intended for apparel, or of coatings for printing.
