Superhydrophobic Surfaces Developed by Mimicking Hierarchical Surface Morphology of Lotus Leaf
The lotus plant is recognized as a ‘King plant’ among all the natural water repellent plants due to its excellent non-wettability. The superhydrophobic surfaces exhibiting the famous ‘Lotus Effect’, along with extremely high water contact angle (>150°) and low sliding angle (<10°), hav...
