Abstract:
By researching on the self-cleaning characteristic of nanometer material, and the dispersion and stability of nanometer particle, a kind of environmentally friendly nanometer finishing agent was exploited and developed. Application results of this nanometer self-cleaning agent on textile fabrics showed that this finishing agent had self-cleaning effect to remove capsicum oil. Generally speaking, over 10% dosage of nanometer material finishing agent would allow the self-cleaning effect completely in 24 hours.

TiO2 photocatalyst and copper-doped titania (Cu/TiO2) photocatalyst were prepared and both photocatalysts were used in the self-cleaning finishing of wall fabrics. XRD showed that the nanometer materials and textile wall fabrics were a good combination. By comparing the self-cleaning effects of two kinds of photocatalysts, the results demonstrate that textile wall fabrics finished with Cu2+-doped TiO2 photocatalyst have better self-cleaning effect under visible light.

Superhydrophobic surfaces exhibit extreme water-repellent properties. These surfaces with high contact angle and low contact angle hysteresis also exhibit a self-cleaning effect and low drag for fluid flow. Certain plant leaves, such as lotus leaves, are known to be superhydrophobic and self-cleaning due to the hierarchical roughness of their leaf surfaces. The self-cleaning phenomenon is widely known as the ‘lotus effect’. Superhydrophobic and self-cleaning surfaces can be produced by using roughness combined with hydrophobic coatings.

We also review a few special case studies aimed at adopting these biomimetic schemes to design and fabricate functional self-cleaning surfaces.

Abstract:
Self-cleaning polyester fabrics were prepared by a simple gas phase deposition procedure in which a layer of polydimethylsiloxane nanofilaments was grown onto textile fibers. Superhydrophobic and self-cleaning properties, tensile breaking strength, mechanical stability and permeability of polyester fabrics were investigated. The results showed that the fabrics deposited had superhydrophobicity, and the contact angle and sliding angle of the fabric surface were 159° and 1.7°, respectively. The self-cleaning test showed that dust particles adhere to rolling water and shed from the surface of pol

Abstract:
The application of self-cleaning coatings presents one of the most effective ways to protect the surfaces of the building materials. The effect of TiO2/kaolin based coatings applied to three types of substrates: non-porous, porous and highly porous, was investigated. Mechanical activation was applied for the impregnation of the active TiO2 component (in content of 3 and 10 wt. %) into the kaolin support. Surface properties (roughness, hydrophilicity and micro-hardness) and functional properties (photocatalytic activity and self-cleaning efficiency) were studied in order to define the optimal f

Abstract:
Bi-functional finishes of cotton such as wrinkle resistance with antibacterial and self-cleaning are important in textile industry. In this case, reducing cost and duration of processing is essential. For this purpose, cotton fabric was treated with different concentrations of maleic acid (MA), sodium hypophosphite (NaH2PO2) and Zno nanoparticles in two methods of separately and simultaneously. Crease recovery angle and weight gain tests were examined. For measuring carboxylic acid groups of maleic acid treated cotton fabrics, methylene blue dye was used, and then, reflective spectrophotometer

PVDF was blended with PVC to improve the weldable property of PVDF topcoat. Effects of film formation process on the surface properties of PVDF/PVC blended film were investigated. Peeling strength of PVDF/PVC blended film has reached the internationally accepted standards (144.3N/5cm) when PVC concentration was 30%. Based on the “lotus effect” principle, PVDF/PVC film was hydrophilic modified by alkali solution and then grafted with alkyl chlorosilane to fabricate the micro- and nano-structures as the surface of lotus leaf. After grafting, contact angle of PVDF/PVC blended film was as high as

Abstract:
We report the spatial beam self-cleaning in bi-tapered conventional multimode fibers (MMFs) with different tapered lengths. Through the introduction of the bi-tapered structure in MMFs, the input beam with poor beam quality from a high-power fiber laser can be converted to a centered, bell-shaped beam in a short length, due to the strengthened nonlinear modes coupling. It is found that the bi-tapered MMF with longer tapered length at the same waist diameter shows better beam self-cleaning effect and larger spectral broadening. The obtained results offer a new method to improve the beam quality

Phragmites communis leaf (PCL) is anisotropic, superhydrophobic and shows a self-cleaning effect. The water contact angle (WCA) values along the vertical and parallel vein directions on PCL are 153° ± 2° and 148° ± 2°, respectively. In contrast, the water sliding angle (WSA) values along the vertical and parallel vein directions for PCL are 12° ± 2° and 7° ± 2°, respectively. The epidermal wax makes the leaves intrinsically hydrophobic. The microstructure of the PCL surface shows sub-millimetre-, micron- and nanometre-scale structures.

Commercially available TiO2 of anatase structure produced in the Chemical Factory Police S.A. was modified by doping Ag from AgNO3 solution viaphotodeposition method. The obtained amount of deposited Ag on TiO2 was in the range of 0.11 to 0.98 mass %. Deposition of Ag on TiO2 resulted in the retarding of the recombination reaction and formation of the higher amount of OH radicals on the photocatalyst surface during irradiation with UV light.
