Abstract

SiO2 regular nano-pillar arrays have been successfully fabricated on glass substrates by imprinting anodized nanoporous aluminum oxide (AAO) templates on inorganic SiO2 sol coatings. The prepared SiO2 nano-pillar array by using a template with the pore diameter of 43.01 nm shows an average pillar diameter of 48.78 nm, a surface roughness of 33.1 nm and a static water contact angle of 150.47°. Surface roughness of SiO2 nano-pillar arrays can be adjusted by changing pore size of AAO templates and increases with the decrease of pore diameter of AAO templates. Transparent superhydrophobic glass is obtained when the prepared nano-pillar array is modified by fluoroalkylsilane, presenting a new way of preparing superhydrophobic glass.
