Trichloro (1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane (PFOCTS) creates superhydrophobic surfaces as self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). It has anti-fouling properties with high wettability that facilitates the release of different composites from the mold.
Trichloro(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane (PFOCTS) is a chlorosilane that forms a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on a variety of substrates. It is majorly used to modify the surface with hydrophobic properties. PFOCTS is a biocompatible polymer with low surface energy and high wettability.
PFOCTS can be used to form a transferring SAM on the surface of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating that can be used for applications like multi-layer microfluidic chips,superhydrophobic steel surfaces，and cell adhesive micropatterns for neuritogenesis.
PFOCTS is a coupling agent that is used to silanize the substrate for the fabrication of microfluidic devices using soft lithography. It can also be used on silicon base that forms a chemically patterned surface for quantitative analysis of insoluble surfactants in the polymeric matrix. Alumina membranes can be treated with PFOCTS for the formation of surperhydrophobic polyimide (PI) based nanotube arrays.
