Superhydrophobic electrospun POSS-PMMA copolymer fibres with highly ordered nanofibrillar and surface structures.
A POSS-PMMA copolymer has been synthesised by conventional free-radical polymerisation reaction. Uniform electrospun fibres from this copolymer showed a water contact angle as high as 165 degrees with a sliding angle as low as 6 degrees . For the first time, we found that the electrospun fibres had a bundled nanofibril secondary structure with an ordered POSS morphology on the fibre surface.
