Summary: This article presents a convenient method for fabricating superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic surfaces by combining laser ablation of stainless steel substrates with magnetron sputtering of tungsten. The results show that the prepared surface exhibits a transition from hydrophilicity and underwater oleophobicity to superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity after depositing a thin tungsten film and annealing. The surface demonstrates excellent wetting behavior even in corrosive aqueous solutions, which is attributed to the microscale texture patterns, hydroxyl content, and low carbon content on the tungsten layer.

Summary: The anti-oil-fouling property of cross-linked poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) was investigated. PDMAEMA coating shows unique under-oil superhydrophilicity and can spontaneously detach oil that adheres on its surface. Compared to other hydrophilic polymers, PDMAEMA coating has lower surface energy and moderate zeta potential, as well as a higher moisture absorption rate. The results suggest that PDMAEMA coating has strong hydration ability and can weaken its interaction with oil, resulting in under-oil superhydrophilicity.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
