Overview

Innovative design integrates superamphiphobic surfaces with antibacterial nanoparticles, enhancing antifouling effectiveness.

Key Points

This research aims to develop durable antifouling coatings by integrating superamphiphobic surfaces with antibacterial properties to combat biofouling.
Proposed a dual-action antifouling mechanism combining physical antiadhesion and chemical antibacterial effects.
Developed a spray-coating technique with APTES-functionalized CuO/SiO2 nanocomposites.
Characterized coatings using Cassie-Baxter modeling, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, and bacterial viability assays.
Achieved excellent antibacterial effects against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria after 24 hours.
Contact angle reached 165.5°, indicating effective liquid repellency.
Demonstrated successful integration of topographical and chemical antibacterial strategies.
