Resistance of Oil‐Infused PDMS with Different Macroporosities Against Bacterial Attachment
In this study, a series of environmentally benign, nonfluorinated liquid paraffin‐infused porous PDMS networks with varying porosities is created. By introducing different homogenous and heterogenous bulk structures and varying interfacial roughness by sugar and salt templating, the role of porosity and oil availability on the resistance against ...
