Fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printers are widely used for rapid prototyping and
customized products because they are inexpensive and open source 3D printers. 3D …

Recently, controlling the wettability of a metallic surface so that it is either superhydrophobic
or superhydrophilic has become important for many applications. However, conventional …

Recently, the fabrication of superhydrophobic metallic surfaces by means of pulsed laser
texturing has been developed. After laser texturing, samples are typically chemically coated …
