Condensed dewdrops self-ejecting on sprayable superhydrophobic CNT/SiO2 composite coating

Abstract

We report a type of novel condensed dewdrops self-ejecting coating from sprayable paint, which was prepared by a self-assembly process of SiO2 nano-particles on hydroxylated carbon nano-tubes with subsequent chemical modification. This work enlarges the application of sprayable superhydrophobic coatings for the enhancement of condensation heat transfer.
