General description

1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane(PFDTES) is a fluoroalkylsilanes(FAS) with low surface energy and high wettability due to the presence of fluorinated carbons. It is used as a superhydrophobic agent for synthesizing various functional coatings.

Application

It was used to functionalize hydrophobic ceramic membranes with nanosized pores. It was also used to functionalize Cu2(OH)3NO3 crystal  to render it hydrophobic. The product may be used to coat nanosized medical devices.
PFDTES is used for the superhydrophobicity of polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) to protect the metal surfaces from fouling. A cost effective and scalable superamphiphobic spray coating of PFDTES on stainless steel surfaces may potentially be used to create anti-icing and stain-resistant surfaces. It may be used to modify the surface of poly(methyl methacrylate(PMMA) for the fabrication of microfluidic chips.

Superoleophobicity is of interest for practical applications such as liquid repellency, self-cleaning, stain resistance, anti-bacterial properties and oil-water separation. In this work, the superoleophobic coating on cotton fabric was applied by simple immersion in TiO2 nanoparticles, perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane and tertraethylorthosilicate solution.
