Resumo

A fluoride acrylate monomer, 1H,1H,2H,2H-nonafluorohexyl-1-acrylate (denoted as F4), was grafted onto cotton fabric through a simultaneous irradiation induced graft polymerization technique. The grafted cotton fabric (denoted as cotton–F4) is superhydrophobic (SCF) when the degree of grafting (DG) exceeded 10%. The morphology of the cotton fabric was unchanged. In addition, the mechanical properties of the cotton fabric and SCF samples were also studied. The results showed that the decrease in mechanical properties was less than 20%, indicating that the SCF retained good mechanical strength.
