Two-Dimensional Nanostrips of Hydrophobic Copper Tetradecanoate for Making Self-Cleaning Glasses

Figure 3

Scanning electron micrograph of copper tetradecanoate nanostrip-covered glass slides produced by dip-coating once (G1), five times (G5), ten times (G10), and thirty times (G30). SEMs of postannealed (200°C) microflower-structured copper tetradecanoate (MF-200°C) and 30 times dip-coated nanostrips of copper tetradecanoate (G30-200°C) are also shown. Insets show the contact angle for water droplets on these surfaces.
