摘　　要：Polypropylene （PP） was treated by an oxygen capacitively coupled radio frequency plasma （CCP） under a radio frequency （RF） power of 200 W for exposure time of 1, 5, and 10 rain. The ageing process of the plasma- treated PP was studied at an ageing temperature of 90 ~C during an ageing time up to 25 h. The formation of the nanotextures with different geometry and aspect ratio and the grafting of large number of oxygen- containing groups were achieved on as-treated PP surfaces under the oxygen CCP treatment for the increased exposure time. The hydrophilicity on the as-treated PP surfaces with the stable nanotextures was rapidly depressed during the ageing process at 90 ℃ due to the restructuring of chemical composition. The surface restructuring rate was dependent on the aspect ratio and the oxygen-containing groups on the nanotextured PP with increasing exposure time. The hydrophobic over-recovery to high hydrophobicity and superhydrophobicity were observed on the post-aged surfaces with the stable nanofibrils from as-treated hydrophilic surfaces. The superhydrophobicity with the low water adhesion was achieved on the post-aged surfaces preserving the nanofibrils with high aspect ratio and large distance due to the decrease of the oxygen-containing groups after the surface restructuring.Polypropylene （PP） was treated by an oxygen capacitively coupled radio frequency plasma （CCP） under a radio frequency （RF） power of 200 W for exposure time of 1, 5, and 10 rain.
