Bio-inspired mechanically robust superhydrophobic polypropylene surfaces embedded with silicon carbide whiskers for enhancing bactericidal performance

The risk of spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria leads to the growth of implant-associated infection, necessitating the large-scale fabrication of antibacterial materials. The successfully synthetic superhydrophobic and bactericidal materials without durable surfaces are easy to destroy and so di...
