Abstract
Preparation of transparent and superhydrophobic coatings by codeposition of an aqueous solution of an amphiphilic fluorinated block copolymer (FBC) with silica particles was developped. Spincoating of this aqueous solution onto glass followed by an appropriate thermal treatment promotes the self-assembly of the hybrid material with the formation of superhydrophobic, robust and transparent coatings.
