In the winter, icing on solid surfaces is a typical occurrence that may create a slew of hassles
and even tragedies. Anti-icing surfaces are one of the effective solutions for this kind of …

Bionic superhydrophobic ice-proof surfaces inspired by natural biology show great potential
in daily life. They have attracted wide research interest due to their promising and wide …

An anti-icing surface with superhydrophobic properties was designed by combining poly
(methyl-3, 3, 3-trifluoropropyl siloxane)(PMTFPS) modified silica with a low surface free …

As an emerging fringe science, bionics integrates the understanding of nature, imitation of
nature, and surpassing nature in one aspect, and it organically combines the synergistic …

In the past few decades, inspired by the superhydrophobic surfaces (SHPS) of animals and
plants such as lotus leaves, rose petals, legs of water striders, and wings of butterflies …

Siloxane-polyacrylic coatings were synthesized from 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate,
different acrylate derivatives and tetraethyl orthosilicate. Derivatives of different lengths of …

Superhydrophobic coatings have a huge impact in various applications due to their extreme
water-repellent properties. The main novelty of the current research work lies in the …

A facile environmentally acceptable surface roughening method using chemical etching in
HCl/H2O2 followed by grafting with n-octyltrimethoxysilane (AS-8) and 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H …

Superhydrophobic surfaces have favorable properties in simultaneously reducing the
negative effects of corrosion and ice accumulation. In this study, laser-texturing was …

The cold galvanizing coatings (CGCs) are used to repair old hot-dip galvanized steel (HDG)
in numerous anticorrosion engineering, but poor adhesion of the CGC restricts its large …
