Natural and biomimetic superhydrophobic surface: Review of the manufacturing techniques
* Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.
Abstract
Nature has produced many materials, things, and processes at all scales, from the large to the tiny. The newly growing area of biomimicry enables the development of materials, tools, and techniques with desired features by mimicking biology or nature. Consequently, the traits of animals, plants, and insects in nature have drawn much attention. Because of its surface roughness and epicuticular waxes, the lotus leaf, for instance, has a superhydrophobic surface. These surfaces feature a water-repellent effect and high and low-contact angle hysteresis. This essay briefly introduces the theoretical wetting process before describing some of the traits of several naturally occurring species. Next, a thorough analysis of artificial superhydrophobic surfaces made in the last five years utilizing the most popular fabrication methods is provided.
