Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the wettability change of APCP-treated PTFE surfaces with time under different storage temperatures and pressures, and the results indicate that low temperature can hinder the wettability recovery. After storing for 5 days, WCA of PTFE stored under room temperature (25°C) recovered from 19 ± 2° to 54 ± 2°, while the WCA of PTFE stored under low temperature (−10°C) just increased to 42 ± 3°. Then, the mechanism contributing to the slower wettability recovery was investigated by analyzing surface chemical compositions via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and observing surface morphologies using atomic force microscope (AFM). After 15 days storage, the contents of O and N decreased obviously, while F content increased. The F content of sample stored under low temperature was 20% less than that stored under room temperature. By contrast, surface micro-morphologies remained unchanged during storage, and the surface roughness Ra of each sample was around 7 nm. Finally, peel strength tests were conducted on APCP-treated PTFE surfaces stored under different temperatures, and the surfaces stored under low temperature maintained better adhesive property; after 15 days of storage, the adhesive strength could still reach 400 N/m, which was 376% higher than that of the untreated surface. The research results are expected to significantly facilitate practical applications of APCP modification and PTFE surfaces.

期刊介绍:
The material innovations on surfaces, combined with understanding and manipulation of physics and chemistry of functional surfaces and coatings, have exploded in the past decade at an incredibly rapid pace.
Superhydrophobicity, superhydrophlicity, self-cleaning, self-healing, anti-fouling, anti-bacterial, etc., have become important fundamental topics of surface science research community driven by curiosity of physics, chemistry, and biology of interaction phenomenon at surfaces and their enormous potential in practical applications. Materials having controlled-functionality surfaces and coatings are important to the manufacturing of new products for environmental control, liquid manipulation, nanotechnological advances, biomedical engineering, pharmacy, biotechnology, and many others, and are part of the most promising technological innovations of the twenty-first century.
