Abstract
In this work, platform post‐modifications using the Huisgen reaction are reported. Various platform surfaces are developed and post‐functionalized with aryl side chains. The development of different conducting polymer platforms allows the study of the impact of the starting surface on the modified surface properties. Also in this work, different aryl side chains are investigated (with one, two, three, or four aromatic rings) in order to investigate the impact of the side chain on the final surface feature. All the combinations (surface vs aryl side chain) are investigated for their wettability. Highly hydrophobic features are observed with apparent contact angles θ higher than 140° and extremely high water adhesion. Surface morphologies are also investigated and important changes in morphology are observed after surface post‐functionalization. The reported strategy to develop various highly hydrophobic surfaces with high water adhesion feature can be a powerful strategy for water trap elaboration. image
