摘要:Porous expanded polytetrafluoroethylene material having a microstructure of

nodes interconnected by fibrils wherein a surface of the material has been modified to

have increased hydrophobicity as indicated by having a water droplet roll-off angle of

less than about 10 degrees in comparison to a typical roll-off angle of greater than

about 12 degrees for the unmodified material. Under magnification, the surface

morphology may be indistinguishable from that of the unmodified precursor material.

The modification is preferably done by exposing the surface to radio frequency gas

plasma discharge with a reactive etching gas for a lengthy amount of time such as about

ten minutes. If surface etching is continued beyond a time adequate to produce the

highly hydrophobic behavior, then the surface morphology includes the appearance of

broken fibrils. Still further treatment results in complete removal of fibrils from the

surface so that under magnification the surface has the appearance of freestanding node

portions not interconnected by fibrils but rather having open valleys disposed between

the freestanding node portions.
