Fabrication and properties of composites of poly(ethylene oxide) and functionalized carbon nanotubes

Smart surface of water-induced superhydrophobicity.

Unusual solvent responsive wettability of water-induced superhydrophobicity was realized on a smart copolymer surface containing double amino acid units.

Micro to nano: Surface size scale and superhydrophobicity

This work looks at the fundamental question of how the surface mobility of drops in the composite state is related to the size scale of the roughness features of the surface. To this end, relevant literature is first reviewed and the important terms are clarified. We then describe and discuss contact and roll-off angle measurements on a set of hydrophobicized silicon post surfaces for which all...

Hybrid 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 ...
