Exquisite surface wettability control of separation system surface is required to achieve separation of liquids with low surface tension difference. Here, we demonstrate a series of surface energy-controlled homogeneous copolymer films to control the surface wettability of polyester fabric, utilizing a vapor-phase process, termed as initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD). The homogeneous copolymer films consist of a hydrophobic polymer, poly(2,4,6,8-tetramethyl-2,4,6,8-tetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane), pV4D4, and a hydrophilic polymer, poly(4-vinyl pyridine), p4VP. The iCVD process allows the formation of homogeneous copolymers from two immiscible, hydrophilic/hydrophobic monomer pairs. A series of homogenous copolymers with systematically controlled surface energy were formed successfully. The surface-energy-controlled separation system can be a powerful tool to separate various kinds of liquid mixtures. |
