Published: May 9, 2024

Abstract Solar‐to‐thermal conversion is a direct and effective way to absorb sunlight for heat via the rational design control of photothermal materials. However, when exposed water‐existed conditions, conventional solar‐to‐thermal performance may experience severe degradation owing high specific capacity water. To tackle with challenge, water‐repellent function introduced construct superhydrophobic materials (SSTMs) achieving stable heating, even, creating new application possibilities under water droplets, sweat, seawater, ice environments. An in‐depth review cutting‐edge research SSTMs given, focusing on synergetic functions, typical construction methods, potentials based medium. Moreover, current challenges future prospects are also carefully discussed.

Superhydrophobic surfaces exhibit considerable potential in road anti-icing applications due to their unique water-repellent properties. However, the nanorough structure of superhydrophobic coatings is highly susceptible degradation under wheel rolling practical applications. To maintain effective hydrophobicity prolonged exposure rolling, a multilayer coating was developed. This utilizes antifreeze protein (AFP)-modified emulsified asphalt as substrate with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and silicon carbide (SiC) surface coatings. Experimental results indicate that inclusion AFP enhances viscosity asphalt, thereby stabilizing coating. Even after 100 cycles sandpaper grinding 500 rolls, maintains robust hydrophobic Moreover, when worn away by long-term high-strength loads, exposed AFP-modified layer continues capabilities, significantly prolonging complete freezing time water droplets on its surface. Additionally, incorporation CNTs SiC photothermal conversion performance, further improving efficiency light irradiation. Overall, this shows promise for application strategies.
