Description
Summary:Naked medical devices are often damaged by blood, bacteria, and other extreme environmental conditions (heat, humidity, acid, alkali, salts, and others), causing device failure and increasing difficulty for the operator. They can also cause inflammation and coagulation resulting in severe complications and even death. In this work, the superhydrophobic ZnO/copper–zinc metal–organic frameworks@stearic acid (ZnO/Cu–ZnMOFs@SA) composite coatings with hierarchical micro/nanostructures were fabricated on Zn substrates via a one-step hydrothermal method. The effects of hierarchical micro/nanostructures on surface wettability, physicochemical stability, and biological properties have been studied in this manuscript. The structure not only provided the coatings with robust waterproofing, abrasive resistance, durability, and thermal and light irradiation stability but also successfully recovered their superhydrophobicity by remodifying the surface with SA, showing excellent repeatability. In addition, the coating demonstrates excellent corrosion resistance and self-cleaning ability and rejects various solid and liquid contaminants. The superhydrophobic ZnO/Cu–ZnMOFs@SA composite coatings also exhibited excellent antibacterial and thrombosis resistance. The findings indicated that the superhydrophobic composite coatings have a strong potential for application in medical instruments for exhibiting multifunctional properties in various extreme environments.
