Abstract

Nowadays, superhydrophobic coatings (SHCs) fabricated from eco-friendly and sustainable materials are high in demand as they do not contribute to additional carbon footprint. In the present work, biowaste eggshell powder and food grade natural beeswax based SHC with static water contact angle, SCA ti 156 degrees, and sliding angle, SA < 10 degrees has been fabricated. The materials property of the coating such as crystal phase, surface morphology and roughness, and chemical bond vibrations have been studied systematically. The coated surface exhibits excellent antifouling property towards commonly used food liquids (SCA > 150 degrees) and also prevents adherence of the liquids. The fabricated coating also exhibits significant stability towards handling. In addition, the SHC inhibits protein adsorption on its surface. Thus, the fabricated eco-friendly SHC can be used as a potential liquid anti-adhesive food packaging coating to prevent wastage of common drinks consumed in our daily life.Copyright (c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd.
