A robust transparent and anti-fingerprint superhydrophobic film

Chem Commun (Camb). 2013 Aug 25;49(66):7310-2. doi: 10.1039/c3cc43677b.

Abstract

A thin film of polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers on the stainless steels with fluoro-thiol modification was prepared through an optimal polymerization time of aniline using HClO4 as a dopant, showing robust superhydrophobic, transparent and anti-fingerprint properties.
