This article reports the coating of fluorinated polymer with dispersion of zinc oxide nanoparticle to create both phase hydrophobicity using a simplistic way admicellar polymerization. Among the various methods used previously this polymerization technique provides tremendous result to impart hydrophobicty with short time. This polymeric coating showed the contact angle is 1460. FT-IR analysis shows the presence of C-F bond. The surface morphology was examined by SEM, XRD analysis. XRD analysis demonstrates the presence of nanoparticle and SEM analysis revealed the distribution of nanoparticle on the cotton surface. TGA is used to show the temperature stability. Beside these wetting times, contact angle measurements confirmed the formation of thin layer of nanoparticle fluorine moieties on the cotton surface.
