Journal ArticleDOI
Progess in superhydrophobic surface development.
TL;DR: The origins of water-repellent surfaces are discussed, examining how size and shape of surface features are used to control surface characteristics, in particular how techniques have progressed to form multi-scaled roughness to mimic the lotus leaf effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
An introduction to superhydrophobicity
TL;DR: This paper is derived from a training session prepared for COST P21 and is intended as an introduction to superhydrophobicity to scientists who may not work in this area of physics or to students.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual‐Scale Roughness Produces Unusually Water‐Repellent Surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, short, wide pillars on slightly rough surfaces are shown to produce super-hydrophobic surfaces (see Figure) where neither the pillars nor the slight roughness suffice alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrinsically Superhydrophobic Organosilica Sol−Gel Foams
TL;DR: In this paper, superhydrophobicity was built in by using organofunctionalized inorganic monomers and setting the conditions so that they were retained in the product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of droplet evaporation on a superhydrophobic surface.
TL;DR: It is shown that a simple quantitative analysis based on the diffusion of water vapor into the surrounding atmosphere can be performed, and estimates of the product of the diffusion coefficient and the concentration difference (saturation minus ambient) are obtained.
