It is common sense that the droplet is stickier to substrates with larger solid-liquid contact areas. Here, we report that this intuitive trend reverses for hollowed micropillars, where a decrease in solid-liquid contact area caused by an increase in the pore size of a pillar top leads to an increase in the droplet depinning force.

BIOMIMETIC SUPERHYDROPHOBIC SURFACES

2014
Inspiration from nature has been widely used in the development of new materials and in the improvement of their properties. Superhydrophobic surfaces inspired in species present in nature with highly water repellent self-cleaning properties — such as the well-known lotus leaf — are interesting examples of the biomimetic approach for the development of

Superhydrophobic Polymers

2015
Superhydrophobic polymers are particularly attractive materials, as they combine low cost, ease of processing, and compatibility with a variety of applications. Surfaces that display the Cassie–Baxter wetting state are particularly attractive for their self-cleaning properties.
