Durable Self‐Healing Superhydrophobic Coating with Biomimic “Chloroplast” Analogous Structure

An analogous "Chloroplast" structure has been successfully replicated in a graphene/SiO2 composite by dopamine self-polymerization and in situ growth of nano-SiO2 on graphene surface. The healing agent of POTS was stored in the analogous "Chloroplast" structure by both chemical bonding and physical absorption. This unique structure enables a superhydrophobic PVDF/RGO-SiO2-POTS coating with excellent self-healing capability, durability, and drag reduction performance.
