Bioinspired Surface Treatments for Improved Decontamination: Textured Polyurethanefor Slippery Liquid-Infused Porous Surfaces (SLIPS)

Abstract

This effort evaluates bioinspired coatings for use in a top-coat type application to identify those technologies that may improve decontamination capabilities for painted surfaces. This report details results for evaluation of a polymer SLIPS treatment applied over textured polyurethane. This is additional work following the previously published NRL/MR/6930--18-9773 on polymer-based slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS).Retention of the simulants paraoxon, methyl salicylate, dimethyl methylphosphate, and diisopropyl fluorophosphates following treatment of contaminated surfaces with a soapy water solution is reported. Wetting behaviors and target droplet diffusion on the surfaces are also discussed.
