Abstract

This disclosure relates to a method for preparing a polymer thin film with water repellency and oil repellency, including: thermally decomposing a thermal initiator to form a radical; reacting the radical with a monomer mixture of a specific composition to synthesize a polymer; and depositing the synthesized polymer on a substrate, and a polymer thin film with water repellency and oil repellency including a polymer resin including (meth)acrylate-based repeat units substituted with a fluorine-containing functional group and repeat units derived from a compound including at least two reactive functional groups at a specific ratio.

25 . The polymer thin film according to claim 24 ,
wherein the polymer thin film has average surface roughness of 15 nm or less, and average surface roughness per 100 nm of 3 nm or less.

26 . The polymer thin film according to claim 24 ,
wherein the prepared polymer thin film has a static contact angle of 120° or more with 3 μl of distilled water, and a static contact angle of 80° or more with 3 μl of oleic acid.

27 . The polymer thin film according to claim 24 ,
wherein the polymer thin film has a thickness of 10 nm to 1000 nm.

28 . The polymer thin film according to claim 24 ,
wherein the polymer resin has weight average molecular weight of 10,000 to 1,000,000.

29 . The polymer thin film according to claim 24 ,
wherein the polymer thin film is prepared by chemical vapor deposition using a thermal initiator.

30 . The polymer thin film according to claim 29 , wherein the chemical vapor deposition comprising the steps of:
thermally decomposing a thermal initiator of a gas phase to form a radical; reacting the formed radical with a monomer mixture comprising (meth)acrylate-based monomers substituted with a fluorine-containing functional group and a reactive compound comprising at least two vinyl groups or (meth)acrylate-based functional groups to synthesize a polymer; and depositing the synthesized polymer on a substrate, wherein a ratio of deposition partial pressure of the following General Formula 1 of the reactive compound comprising at least two vinyl groups or (meth)acrylate-based functional groups to deposition partial pressure of the following General Formula 1 of the (meth)acrylate-based monomers substituted with a fluorine-containing functional group is 0.13 to 0.50:
Deposition partial pressure= Pm/P sat  [General Formula 1]

wherein, in the General Formula 1,
Psat denotes saturation vapor pressure of corresponding monomers or compounds at a surface temperature of a substrate on which the synthesized polymer is deposited, and
Pm denotes partial pressure of corresponding monomers or compounds in a reactor in which the deposition is progressed.
