  • Patent number: 11498842
    Abstract: A method of forming nanoparticles having superhydrophobicity includes preparing a PDMS film including a structure having a predetermined shape on a surface thereof, and generating the nanoparticles having superhydrophobicity on the surface of the PDMS film by combusting the surface of the PDMS film using a diffusion flame. Transparent nanoparticles having superhydrophobicity and oleophobicity may be generated simply and easily on the surface of the PDMS film.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10057981
    Abstract: A stretchable circuit board has stretchability as well as flexibility of the flexible substrate and retains mechanical and electrical properties even under larger deformation such as bending, twisting, etc. The liquid metal pattern can exhibit stretchability almost the same as that of the polymer substrate due to the liquid metal being fully wetted on the substrate with metal patterns based on the wetting behavior of the liquid metal. Therefore, the stretchable circuit board can achieve both mechanical and electrical properties even under physical deformation such as bending, stretching and twisting. It is demonstrated that the stretchable circuit board can be effectively applied to wearable tactile interfaces, stretchable solar cell arrays, stretchable displays, and wearable electronic devices.
