  Abstract

Superhydrophobic cotton fabrics were prepared here with low surface energy silane components decorated with copper oxide nanoparticles that show excellent self-cleaning activity. The fabrics were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Moreover, it is reported that the CuO/TMSPM coated fabric can successfully separate a series of oil-water mixtures with high separation efficiency through a simple filtering process. Additionally, the coated fabric also revealed under oil superhydrophobicity and self-cleaning behaviour. The durability of the coating has been evaluated by washing with detergent , adhesive tape tests and stain repellency. The results of all these tests recommended that the coating was stable.
