Hydrophobic Glasses Surfaces Modified With Iron Oxide
The present research is related to the Surface Science. The purpouse of this work is basically to obtain a modified glass surface with high contact angle what is commonly found in materials with hydrophobic and superhydrophobic properties. Intending to increase the glass hydrophobicity by increasing the contact angle between glass and water, iron oxide nanoparticles were incrusted on glass to obtain texturized surface and reactive chemical sites that allowed also chemical modifications.
