An introduction to superhydrophobicity [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2010
This paper is derived from a training session prepared for COST P21. It is intended as an introduction to superhydrophobicity to scientists who may not work in this area of physics or to students. Superhydrophobicity is an effect where roughness and hydrophobicity combine to generate unusually hydrophobic surfaces, causing water to bounce and roll off ...

Facile Preparation of Durable and Eco-Friendly Superhydrophobic Filter with Self-Healing Ability for Efficient Oil/Water Separation

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
The superhydrophobic feature is highly desirable for oil/water separation (OWS) operation to achieve excellent separation efficiency. However, using hazardous materials in fabricating superhydrophobic surfaces is always the main concern.

Superhydrophobicity on Hairy Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesLangmuir, 2010
We investigate the wetting properties of surfaces patterned with fine elastic hairs, with an emphasis on identifying superhydrophobic states on hydrophilic hairs. We formulate a two dimensional model of a large drop in contact with a row of equispaced elastic hairs and, by minimising the free energy of the model, identify the stable and metastable ...

Fabrication of Superhydrophobic Ni-Co-BN Nanocomposite Coatings by Two-Step Jet Electrodeposition

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
The stability of hydrophobic surface has an important influence on the application of superhydrophobic function. The destruction of hydrophobic micro-nano structures on the material surface is the main factor leading to the loss of superhydrophobic ...
