A facile procedure to fabricate nano calcium carbonate–polymer-based superhydrophobic surfaces

Abstract

A facile procedure to fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces based on nano calcium carbonate–polymer composites has been described. The hydrophobicity of the resulting surfaces can be tuned by varying the weight ratio of nano calcium carbonate–polymer composites. The simple and robust strategy can facilitate the fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces on general substrates.
