Super-hydrophobic fabric and preparation method thereof

A method for preparing durable super-hydrophobic fabrics through a facile method by using Pickering emulsion technology, comprising:

• amphiphilic particles stabilizing low-surface-energy substances in water to form Pickering emulsion, finishing a textile through the facile method by using the Pickering emulsion, and drying the textile to obtain a super-hydrophobic fabric,
• wherein the step of drying comprises pre-curing the fabric for 1-3 min at the temperature of 60-80° C. and curing the fabric for 1-3 min at the temperature of 120-160° C., or drying the fabric for 30-60 min at the temperature of 120-150° C.,
• wherein the low-surface-energy substances are at least one of silicone oil, long-chain alkane compounds with carbon atom number n≥16 and perfluoroalkyl compounds with carbon atom number n≤6,
• wherein the total concentration of amphiphilic particles and low-surface-energy substances in the Pickering emulsion is 0-300 mg/mL, but not 0;
• wherein the mass ratio of amphiphilic particles to low-surface-energy substances in the Pickering emulsion is 1:0-30;
• but not 0,
• wherein when the low-surface-energy substances is the silicone oil, the total concentration of the amphiphilic particles and the low-surface-energy substances is 80-120 mg/ml, and the mass ratio of the amphiphilic nanoparticles to the low-surface-energy substances is 1:0.5-5.
