[0093] It is worth mentioning that the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating is a coating with hydrophobic and oleophobic properties formed by depositing perfluoropolyether or perfluoropolyether derivative on a surface of a substrate by a low temperature plasma chemical vapor deposition. For example, a temperature range in the chamber during chemical vapor deposition is 30-60 degrees, which is more suitable for protecting the substrate and avoiding damage to the substrate caused by high temperature.

[0095] The reagent used in the above-mentioned coating may be selected from SOLVAY company's FLUOROLINKC MD 700, FLUOROLINK® D, Fluorolink® E10H, Fluorolink® PEG 45, Galden® SV 55, Galden® HT 170, Galden® SV 80 RP06, Fomblin® Y L-VAC 16/6, Fomblin® Y, Fomblin® M100, or 3M company's Novec fluorinated fluid, or a mixture of various products containing perfluoropolyether or perfluoropolyether derivative.
[0096] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a preparation process of the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating may be as follows: (1) placing a substrate with a clean surface in a reaction chamber of a plasma device, then continuously vacuumizing the reaction chamber to reach a vacuum degree of 1-200 mtorr; (2) performing a chemical vapor deposition on the substrate to prepare the coating: (a) introducing a plasma source gas (such as helium, argon, other inert gas), turning on pretreatment to pretreat the substrate, and generating plasma in the chamber using radio frequency discharge, microwave discharge or pulse discharge etc., in the chamber. The reaction raw material monomer may be introduced at the same time as the plasma source gas, or the substrate may be pretreated for 1-1800s after the plasma source gas is introduced and before the reaction raw material monomer is introduced according to requirements of process parameters; (b) setting the pressure and temperature in the vacuum reaction chamber, at the same time introducing a gaseous or vaporized reaction raw material monomer, starting the deposition plasma discharge to perform plasma chemical vapor deposition, adjusting the plasma generation power to 300-500W, adjusting the chamber inner temperature to 30-60° C., after the reaction is completed, stopping feeding the reaction raw material monomer gas, and raising the chamber pressure to normal pressure. It is worth mentioning that, preferably, both the pretreatment plasma discharge and the deposition plasma discharge are performed by a pulse bias power supply in a constant power mode.
[0097] Further, when preparing the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating, process conditions used are: the discharge power supply adopts a constant power mode pulse bias power supply, the plasma source gas flow rate is 10-500 sccm, the pressure is constant at 10-200 mT, the monomer flow rate is 10-1000 ul/min, the coating power is 400-500W, the frequency is 2 KHz-70 KHz, and the duty cycle is 5%-80%.
[0098] The disclosure discloses a hydrophobic and oleophobic coating, which is able to be formed on a surface of a substrate by PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition). The hydrophobic and oleophobic coating is able to improve the water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of the surface of the substrate.
[0099] Further, the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating is suitable for improving hydrophobic and oleophobic properties of a fabric surface, that is, the substrate is preferably a fabric. The hydrophobic and oleophobic coating is deposited on a surface of the fabric by PECVD, without immersing the fabric or etching the surface of the fabric, so as to protect the material properties of the fabric itself.
[0100] Further, the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating is a composite coating comprising a multi-layer structure. The hydrophobic and oleophobic coating includes at least a first layer and a second layer. The first layer is a layer that is close to or directly in contact with the substrate, and the first layer and the second layer are respectively formed by PECVD.
[0101] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first layer is formed by means of low temperature plasma chemical vapor deposition of one or more silanes, siloxanes or cyclosiloxanes on a surface of a substrate, such as a fabric surface. The second layer is formed by depositing perfluoropolyether or perfluoropolyether derivative on a surface of the first layer. That is, after the first layer is deposited on the surface of the substrate, the second layer is deposited, thereby obtaining the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating of the multilayer structure.
[0102] Preferably, the first layer and the second layer of the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating of the multi-layer structure are continuously formed in a same reaction equipment, and the deposition of each layer is controlled under predetermined conditions. Optionally, in one embodiment, the first layer and the second layer are formed intermittently, that is, after one layer is deposited, the film performance test is performed, and then another layer is deposited, thereby obtaining multi-layer structure. It may be seen from the test process that the continuous manufacturing process is better than the intermittent manufacturing process. That is to say, when preparing the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating of the multi-layer structure, it is necessary to perform PECVD multiple times, and then each PECVD process may be performed continuously in a same equipment, or may be performed in stages, forming one layer after forming another layer. Preferably, multiple PECVD processes are carried out continuously in a same equipment, pre-treating once, then successively respectively feeding reaction raw materials corresponding to different layers, and controlling corresponding reaction conditions.
[0103] It is worth mentioning that the hydrophobicity of the substrate surface may be improved by the first layer of the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating, and the oleophobicity of the substrate surface may be improved by the second layer of the hydrophobic and oleophobic coating, thereby making the substrate have both good hydrophobicity and good oleophobic property.

Or in other words, helium, argon are used as the plasma source gas, and helium or argon is introduced in advance during deposition, facilitating plasma generation in the reaction chamber.

[0116] Further, an oil repellency of a fabric is tested according to AATCC 118 “oil drainage: hydrocarbon resistance test”, which is basically consistent with GB/T 19977 and ISO 14419. Eight kinds of homologous solvents with gradually decreasing surface tension are used as standard liquids. Test liquids of different grades drop on the surface of the finished fabric, and the surface wetting of the fabric is observed after 30s. If a test liquid does not wet the fabric, the corresponding grade is the oil-repellent grade of the tested fabric.

A fabric sample after waterproof and oil-proof treatment is fixed on a metal ring with a diameter of about 150 mm, and placed on a fixed frame with an angle of 45°. 250 mL of water from a glass funnel above the sample is poured quickly to ensure that the natural spraying is completed within 25-30s. The fixing ring is removed, the fabric is gently tapped horizontally while facing down. The surface wetness of the sample is observed, to evaluate the waterproof value.
