| Zusammenfassung: | Controlling surface morphology is one of the main strategies used to tune surface hydrophobic and icephobic properties. Taking advantage of coating growth by initiated chemical vapor deposition, random and ordered wrinkles were induced on a thin film of polyperfluorodecyl acrylate (pPFDA) deposited on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to simultaneously modify surface chemistry and morphology. A range of wrinkles of different wavelengths were studied, and how the wrinkle characteristics change with varying coating thickness. Ordered wrinkles enhanced hydrophobicity more when compared to random wrinkles, with a noticeable effect for coating thickness on the order of hundreds of nanometers. An insight into the mechanism of surface wrinkling and its effect on freezing delay is also provided, and promising results were found on ordered wrinkles, where a freezing delay was observed |
