Abstract:

A sulfobetaine zwitterionic compound, N,N-dimethylamino ethyl carbamate propyl triethoxysilane sulfonate(SiNNS), was designed and synthesized and its composition and molecular structure were characterized by means of FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, the biomimetic surface imitating the chemical features of cellular outer membrane were constructed via the self-assembly of SiNNS molecules on the hydroxylated glass surface. The morphology structure, chemical composition and wettability of the prepared biomimetic surface were characterized by atomic force microscopy(AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and contact angle measurement. The antifogging and antibacterial adhesion performances of the biomimetic surface were investigated using an untreated glass surface as a control sample. The results indicate that the zwitterionic self-assembled biomimetic surface can possess superhydrophilicity with a water contact angle of 9.2° and underwater superoleophobicity with an oil contact angle of 175.6°. Compared to the corresponding control sample, the zwitterionic self-assembled biomimetic surface can exhibit an excellent antifogging property and an obvious antibacterial adhesion performance.
