Abstract
Hydrophobic and superhydrophobic coatings and articles coated with the hydrophobic and superhydrophobic coatings that exhibit superior hydrophobic properties. The hydrophobic or superhydrophobic coatings and the articles coated therewith can be made using unconventional methods, for example, based on a single-step, stoichiometrically-controlled hydrolysis and condensation reaction of organosilanes. The reaction can provide micro- to nano-scale hierarchical siloxane aggregates that are dispersible in solvents (e.g., organic solvents) to provide a coating mixture.
