Chemistry and topography are the two distinct available tools for customizing different bio-
inspired liquid wettability including superhydrophobicity, superamphiphobicity, underwater …

Currently, fluorides and long-chain aliphatic compounds are the most frequent low surface
energy chemicals utilized in the preparation of superhydrophobic coatings, but associated …

Aerophilic surfaces immersed underwater trap films of air known as plastrons. Plastrons
have typically been considered impractical for underwater engineering applications due to …

Surface hydrophobicity is generally created by lower surface energy materials. However, it is
predictable. Simultaneously, it is rare to construct a self-healing surface hydrophobicity …

Although advances in industrial products have brought convenience to our lives, severe
weather has increased the safety risks to industrial facilities. Considerable efforts have been …

Superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces have progressed rapidly in fundamental research over the
