Fluoroalkyl end-capped vinyltrimethoxysilane oligomer suffered the sol–gel reaction under alkaline conditions in the presence of titanium oxide nanoparticles in tetrahydrofuran to afford the corresponding fluorinated oligomer/titanium oxide nanocomposites[RF-(VM-SiO2)n-RF/TiO2] in excellent to moderate isolated yields. These fluorinated composites thus obtained were nanometer size-controlled fine particles, and exhibited good dispersibility and stability in traditional organic solvents except for water. These fluorinated nanocomposites were applied to the surface modification of glass to exhibit not only a completely superhydrophobic characteristic (a water contact angle: 180°) with a non-wetting property against water droplets but also a good oleophobicity imparted by fluoroalkyl segments in the composites on their surface. Of particular interest, we have found that the wettability for water can be switched between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity by alternation of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and dark storage with keeping a good oleophobicity on the modified surface treated with the anatase-type titanium oxide composite.
