Hydrophobic porous metallic membranes can be integrated into a microreactor for in-situ separation of steam at high temperatures. This study investigates the fabrication and characterization of hydrophobic coatings on metallic substrates. Two different coating methods were explored: (1) plasma enhanced-chemical vapor deposition to form amorphous carbon silicon-doped a-C:H:Si:O thin films and (2) direct immersion in fluoroalkyl silane (FAS-13) solution using dip coating to form self-assembled monolayers. The results on wettability as well as SEM images and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy/Wavelength Depressive Spectroscopy analyses indicate that the coated sintered stainless-steel membranes are adequate as hydrophobic surfaces, maintaining the porosity of the substrate and withstanding high temperatures. Especially the FAS-13 coating shows very good resistance to temperatures higher than 250°C. These findings are of special significance for the fabrication of porous metal membranes for the separation of steam in high-temperature applications.
