Superwetting antibacterial copper oxide nanoflake foil substrates generated by thermal oxidation
A facile one-step method of roughened copper foils of 0.0076 mm thickness heated on the open flame for 15 s produced superhydrophilic surfaces that exhibited superwetting at average radial growths of 10.8 mm/s following drop dispensation. Superhydrophilicity was found to deteriorate over time and...
