Robust liquid-infused surfaces through patterned wettability.
Liquid-infused surfaces display advantageous properties that are normally associated with conventional gas-cushioned superhydrophobic surfaces. However, the surfaces can lose their novel properties if the infused liquid drains from the surface. We explore how drainage due to gravity or due to an external flow can be prevented through the use of chemical patterning. A small area of the overall s...
متن کاملWettability versus roughness of engineering surfaces
Wetting of real engineering surfaces occurs in many industrial applications (liquid coating, lubrication, printing, painting...). Forced and natural wetting can be beneficial in many cases, providing lubrication and therefore reducing friction and wear. However the wettability of surfaces can be strongly affected by surface roughness. This influence can be very significant for static and dynami...
متن کاملTowards a tunable and switchable water adhesion on a TiO(2) nanotube film with patterned wettability.
Tunable water adhesion was realized on a TiO(2) nanotube film with patterned wettability formed via selective illumination through a mask. Meanwhile, the adhesion can be switched between sliding superhydrophobicity and sticky superhydrophobicity by masked illumination and heat annealing.
متن کاملNanometer-scale patterned surfaces for control of cell adhesion.
A novel cell-adhesion surface, controlled by nanometer-scale topography and chemical patterning, was developed using semiconductor fabrication methods and the formation of self-assembled monolayers. The patterned surface had a sharp contrast between the adsorption and non-adsorption of proteins and cells, and the contrast could be maintained for more than 10 days. The patterning method could ea...
متن کاملEnhanced Cell Adhesion and Alignment on Micro-Wavy Patterned Surfaces
Various micropatterns have been fabricated and used to regulate cell adhesion, morphology and function. Micropatterns created by standard photolithography process are usually rectangular channels with sharp corners (microgrooves) which provide limited control over cells and are not favorable for cell-cell interaction and communication. This paper proposes a new micropattern with smooth wavy sur...
