Bio-inspired hierarchical polymer micro- and nanostructures for anti-adhesion applications
In this paper we present polymer surfaces inspired by the calamistrum of cribellate spiders. The calamistrum resembles a micro-comb with a finger-print-like nanorippled topography, which allows cribellate spiders to handle and process nanofibers, without sticking to them. Due to its morphology, the...
