By depositing micron/submicron sized glass particles on the metal mesh through laser induced plasma assisted ablation, a stable superhydrophilic/underwater-superoleophobic surface is created, maintaining superhydrophilicity and efficiently separating oil and water.
In this report we show that the laser textured stainless steel meshes which serve as excellent oil water separator immediately after laser processing, lose their oil water separation capability after storage in ambient air. This was possibly due to the reactive nature of the metal oxides formed during laser processing which resulted in transition of the wettability of processed metallic meshes from superhydrophilic to superhydrophobic during storage. To overcome this issue, we show that by using a glass cover plate over the metal mesh during laser processing, micron/submicron sized glass particles can be deposited on to the mesh via a process known as laser induced plasma assisted ablation. Since the glass is inherently hydrophilic and inert, and therefore the glass particles coating produced a stable superhydrophilic/underwater-superoleophobic surface which was observed to maintain its superhydrophilicity for the tested duration of similar to 8 months and perform oil/water separation with an efficiency of similar to 96% for various oils. Further, the glass particles coated mesh was found to sustain several cycles of sandpaper abrasion before losing its oil water separation capability.
