What is the contact angle for Silica nanoparticles synthesized by Stober Method on Glass substrate? Will it be hydrophilic without functionalization?

30 May 2024 1 9K Report

Kindly suggest whether hydrophobic coating of silica naoparticles can be obtained on Glass substrate without reagent using Stober process?

Barry Arkles

Silica particles produced by the Stober process have high concentrations of hydroxyl groups on the surface and are considered hydrophilic.
