Porous materials show superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic switching [PDF]
, 2005 Switching between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity in porous materials was predicted theoretically and demonstrated experimentally with the example of thermally induced contact angle change; tunability of this system was also ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly of coordination solids, enabled by the surface‐mounted metal‐organic framework (SURMOF) platform, is on the cusp of generating the organic counterpart of the epitaxy of inorganics. The programmable and sequential SURMOF protocol, optimized by machine learning (ML), is suited for accessing high‐quality thin films of ...

Interconnected Porous Hydrogels with Tunable Anisotropy Through Aqueous Emulsion Bioprinting
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 3D bioprintable microporous bioink is developed using an aqueous two‐phase system (ATPS) composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) mimetic biopolymers. The ATPS bioink enables the fabrication of interconnected porous architectures with up to 70% porosity, supporting long‐term cell viability and 3D cell alignment, enabling a simultaneous generation of ...

A Thermochromic Superhydrophobic Surface [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2016 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.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A transparent, laser‐microscribed glass platform enables cancer diagnosis within 1 h—much faster than histology, which takes days, and free from the chemical or contrast risks of MRI or CT scans. The antibody‐functionalized rough glass surface captures viable cancer cells directly from suspension, allowing instant optical readout and offering a rapid ...

Dynamic wetting and spreading and the role of topography [PDF]
, 2009 Hoffman-de Gennes law, which relates the edge speed, ve, to the dynamic and equilibrium contact angles q and qe by ve µq(q2 -qe 2 ). When the liquid wets the surface completely and the equilibrium contact angle vanishes, the edge speed is proportional to

Fluorine‐Free Soft Nanocomposites for High‐Speed Liquid Impact Repellence
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Fluorine‐free soft nanocomposite coatings are developed using silicone oil‐mediated mechanical‐stiffness control, enabling ‘dry’ liquid‐repellent surfaces that resist high‐speed water jet impacts up to ∼60 m/s. By tuning nanoparticle loading and oil content, the coatings also achieve >90% optical transparency, amphiphobicity with impact resistance to ...

The effect of sintering regime on superhydrophobicity of silicon nitride modified ceramic surfaces
Journal of Asian Ceramic Societies, 2021 The most common method of obtaining a superhydrophobic surface is to create a specific surface morphology and then coat it with a hydrophobic polymer. Numerous such morphological surfaces have been developed but are often fragile.
