Abstract  

The F-PANI material was synthesized by modifying polyaniline (PANI) with perfluorodecyl triethoxysilane (FAS), which was subsequently blended with silicone resin (SR) to fabricate a functional F-PANI coating that exhibits both photo-thermal and superhydrophobic properties. The coating displays a contact angle of 150.8o and a rolling angle of 3o, along with superior mechanical strength, self-cleaning ability, and anti-corrosion performance. Upon exposure to 1 Sun irradiation at 20oC, the F-PANI coating can attain a surface temperature of 83.5oC within five minutes. Additionally, the coating demonstrates excellent photo-thermal features even at low temperatures. By 1 Sun irradiation at -25oC, water droplets on the F-PANI coating were observed to be completely freezed after 830 s, showing a significantly slower freezing rate than the SR coating. Furthermore, the F-PANI coating exhibits defrosting and de-icing capability by 1 Sun irradiation at -15oC.
