Abstract

The superhydrophobic property of the fabric can be obtained by plasma techniques instead of using chemical methods. These chemical methods were very dangerous to the health of human as well as the environment. This article gives an idea for the fabrication of superhydrophobic fabric using oxygen plasma. In this paper the change in chemical and surface properties have been investigated by XPS, AFM, FE-SEM analysis. The elemental composition and presence of various functional groups were identified using EDAX and ATR-FTIR. The plasma species were observed using optical emission spectroscopy.
