ABSTRACT
The development of green, controllable, and simplified pathways for rapid dopamine polymerization holds significant importance in the field of polydopamine (PDA) surface chemistry. In this study, a green strategy is successfully devised to accelerate and control the polymerization of dopamine through the introduction of ozone (O3 ). The findings reveal that ozone serves as an eco-friendly trigger, significantly accelerating the dopamine polymerization process across a broad pH range, spanning from 4.0 to 10.0. Notably, the deposition rate of PDA coatings on a silicon wafer reaches an impressive value of ≈64.8 nm h-1 (pH 8.5), which is 30 times higher than that of traditional air-assisted PDA and comparable to the fastest reported method. Furthermore, ozone exhibits the ability to accelerate dopamine polymerization even under low temperatures. It also enables control over the inhibition-initiation of the polymerization process by regulating the "ON/OFF" mode of the ozone gas. Moreover, the ozone-induced PDA coatings demonstrate exceptional characteristics, including high homogeneity, good hydrophilicity, and remarkable chemical and mechanical stability. Additionally, the ozone-induced PDA coatings can be rapidly and effectively deposited onto a wide range of substrates, particularly those that are adhesion-resistant, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
