近些年,为了提高大棚的透光性,提高作物的产量和质量,农用棚膜亲水涂层得到广泛关注,市场上出现了各种亲水涂层。但是对于表面张力的研究却很少。为此,在聚乙烯(PE)薄膜上制备不同配比PVA/Al_(2)O_(3)亲水涂层及丙烯酸、丙烯酸六氟丁酯...近些年,为了提高大棚的透光性,提高作物的产量和质量,农用棚膜亲水涂层得到广泛关注,市场上出现了各种亲水涂层。但是对于表面张力的研究却很少。为此,在聚乙烯(PE)薄膜上制备不同配比PVA/Al_(2)O_(3)亲水涂层及丙烯酸、丙烯酸六氟丁酯和4-丙烯酰氧基二苯甲酮三元共聚物亲水涂层,测量了对于三种液体(水、二碘甲烷、甲酰胺)的接触角。利用几何平均(OW)法和Lifshitz-van der Waals/酸碱(LW/AB)法间接计算亲水涂层的表面张力,并与未处理PE薄膜和电晕处理的PE薄膜进行对比,发现亲水涂层的表面张力大于电晕处理的PE薄膜和未处理的PE薄膜;且OW法计算得到PVA/Al_(2)O_(3)亲水涂层比例为5∶3时表面张力最大;LW/AB法计算得到PVA/Al_(2)O_(3)亲水涂层比例为5∶2时表面张力最大。由原子力显微镜得到的PVA/Al_(2)O_(3)亲水涂层比例为5∶3时粗糙度最大。本研究可为农用棚膜防雾滴涂层的开发提供理论指导。展开更多
