Towards Understanding Why a Superhydrophobic Coating Is Needed by Water Striders

Shi, F., Niu, J., Liu, J., Liu, F., Wang, Z., Feng, X.‐Q., Zhang, X.·2007·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Gold threads modified with superhydrophobic or normal hydrophobic coatings are used as a model system in the study of the contribution of the superhydrophobic coating of a water strider to its floating and movement on the water surface. After depositing Pt aggregates on one of its ends (see figure), the gold threads are able to move in the H2O2 aqueous solution. The superhydrophobic coating decreases fluidic drag during motion.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
