Explaining fluorine-free water and oil repellent surface design in response to PFAS regulations.
■Title "Fluorine-Free Water-Repellent and Oil-Repellent Treatment Technology Achievable - Basic Principles of Wetting and Surface Design Guidelines and Examples to Improve Liquid Slippage" With the strengthening of PFAS regulations, there is growing interest in water-repellent and oil-repellent technologies that do not use fluorinated compounds. This seminar will systematically explain the basic theories related to the wettability of solid surfaces, evaluation techniques such as dynamic contact angles and contact angle hysteresis, and design methods for superhydrophobic and oleophobic surfaces. Furthermore, it will provide detailed introductions to the latest trends and practical examples of fluorine-free surface treatment technologies utilizing monomolecular films, polymer thin films, and sol-gel coatings. 【Target Audience】 - Individuals involved in surface treatment and surface modification technologies - Developers of water-repellent, oil-repellent, anti-soiling, and anti-adhesion technologies - Engineers and researchers considering PFAS alternative technologies - Developers of functional coating materials
