Superwetting surface can be divided into (super) hydrophilic surface and (super) hydrophobic surface. There are many methods to control superwetting surface, among which plasma technology is a safe and convenient one. This paper first summarizes the plasma technologies that control the surface superwettability, then analyzes the influencing factors from the micro point of view. After that, it focuses on the plasma modification methods that change the superwetting structure on the surface of different materials, and finally, it states the specific applications of the superwetting materials. In a word, the use of plasma technology to obtain a superwetting surface has a wide application prospect.
Keywords: plasma treatment; super oil repellent materials; superhydrophilic; superhydrophobic.
