From superhydrophobicity and water repellency to superhydrophilicity: smart polymer-functionalized surfaces.
pH-responsive surfaces, reversibly switching between superhydrophilicity and superhydrophobicity/water repellency, are developed by "grafting from" a pH-sensitive polymer onto a hierarchically micro/nano-structured substrate. We quantify the water repellency by investigating the restitution coefficient of water droplets bouncing off the surfaces. The water repellent state requires appropriate h...
متن کاملHybrid surface design for robust superhydrophobicity.
Surfaces may be rendered superhydrophobic by engineering the surface morphology to control the extent of the liquid-air interface and by the use of low-surface-energy coatings. The droplet state on a superhydrophobic surface under static and dynamic conditions may be explained in terms of the relative magnitudes of the wetting and antiwetting pressures acting at the liquid-air interface on the ...

Unusual solvent responsive wettability of water-induced superhydrophobicity was realized on a smart copolymer surface containing double amino acid units.
متن کاملInterdroplet bilayer arrays in millifluidic droplet traps from 3D-printed moulds.
In droplet microfluidics, aqueous droplets are typically separated by an oil phase to ensure containment of molecules in individual droplets of nano-to-picoliter volume. An interesting variation of this method involves bringing two phospholipid-coated droplets into contact to form a lipid bilayer in-between the droplets. These interdroplet bilayers, created by manual pipetting of microliter dro...
متن کامل3d-printed Microvalves and Micropumps
This paper describes a novel microvalve design that can be fabricated using stereolithography without need for the manual alignment and bonding steps required of PDMS microvalves. Multiple units of these microvalves can be arranged together and operated in tandem to perform fluid routing, switching, and pumping tasks. We demonstrate the performance of a four-valve fluid switch connected to a do...
