Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of preparing a material having a superhydrophobic region and a hydrophobic region is described, involving preparing a superhydrophobic surface body and hydrolyzing one surface of the prepared superhydrophobic surface body using a strong base. Such preparation method is simpler than conventional preparation methods and is capable of preparing a material having opposite surface characteristics at low costs.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of preparing a surface body having a superhydrophobic region and a hydrophilic region, the method comprising: (a) depositing a superhydrophobic polymer on a porous substrate to render the substrate superhydrophobic using initiated chemical vapor deposition; and (b) hydrolyzing by wet-etching one surface of the superhydrophobic porous substrate, thereby modifying said surface of the superhydrophobic porous substrate into a hydrophilic surface…
