A self-adaption robust superhydrophobic cement mortar for resistance of cold environment

Superhydrophobic coatings have wide range of engineering applications due to its excellent wettability. However, the durability of superhydrophobic coatings is still challenging under complex environments, especially in cold regions. In this study, we prepared a new self-adaption superhydrophobic cement mortar (SSCM) by wettability modified aggregates with polydimethylsiloxane adhesive and silica nanoparticles decorated by 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane. Subsequently, a series of multi-scale characteristics of the SSCM sample were systematically investigated, including the micro morphology, the chemical compositions, the selfadaption robustness, the anti-/de-icing properties, and the freeze-thaw (F-T) resistance. The results indicate that surface and inside of the SSCM samples exhibit a self-adaption superhydrophobicity with the 150.0 degrees contact angle due to the low surface energy micro/nano structure of wettability modified aggregates. Meanwhile, the SSCM sample shows excellent anti-/de-icing abilities due to the stable rough micro/nano structure under negative-temperature ambient, which can delay the droplet freezing time by 4.3 times than that of the contrast sample. Additionally, the newly exposed of SSCM sample can still have the self-adaption superhydrophobicity and endow significant F-T resistance even if the surface of SSCM was damaged. Meanwhile, the SSCM sample can improve the F-T resistance by 45 % compared to the contrast sample. This work provides a new strategy to solve the durability limitation of superhydrophobic coating in engineering practice.
