A Liquid Jet Impinging onto Rotating Convex Superhydrophobic and Hydrophilic Surfaces: Reflection or Deflection? [PDF]
A liquid jet impinging on stationary and rotating superhydrophobic and hydrophilic convex surfaces is experimentally investigated. The effects of the rotation and wettability of the surface and the inertia and impingement rate of the jet on the flow, and

Superhydrophobicity on Hairy Surfaces [PDF]
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 ...

Research analysis of superhydrophobic bionic prototype preparation technology
Superhydrophobic surface can cause a water droplet to show a static contact angle >150° and a sliding angle <10°, which is widely used in many engineering fields, such as self-cleaning, anti-corrosion, hydrophobic ice suppression and ship drag ...

Superhydrophobic surfaces [PDF]
AbstractSuperhydrophobicity – also known as water repellency – has recently attracted considerable attention because of its numerous potential applications. However, the fundamental concepts and equations describing the wettability of superhydrophobic surfaces have been known since the 1940s.

A Thermochromic Superhydrophobic Surface [PDF]
AbstractHighly enhanced solid-state thermochromism is observed in regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene), P3HT, when deposited on a superhydrophobic polymer-SiO2 nanocomposite coating. The conformal P3HT coating on the nanocomposite surface does not alter or reduce superhydrophicity while maintaining its reversible enhanced thermochromism.
