Lubricant Depletion‐Resistant Slippery Liquid‐Infused Porous Surfaces via Capillary Rise Lubrication of Nanowire Array

Despite their promise in diverse applications, lubricant depletion over time presents an important challenge for slippery lubricant-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS). The main source of is the growth a wetting ridge around droplet foreign liquid that removes infused from surface when slides off. This work describes fabrication liquid-infused ZnO nanowire array by capillary rise lubrication and effect morphology on suppressing formation. orientation nanowires strongly affects infiltration stability SLIPS properties. infiltrated random arrays does not form visible water because strong capillarity retains confined nanoporous structure. lack gives to stable exhibits self-recovery lubricant. Such structure under centrifugal force, showing high stability. study provides straightforward, robust, potentially scalable approach making suppresses taking advantage unique lubrication.
