Janus interface materials: superhydrophobic air/solid interface and superoleophobic water/solid interface inspired by a lotus leaf

Cheng, Qunfeng, Li, Mingzhu, Zheng, Yongmei, Su, Bin, Wang, Shutao, Jiang, Lei·2011·Soft Matter

Abstract

We discovered underwater superoleophobicity on the lower side of a lotus leaf, and fabricated Janus interface materials with in-air superhydrophobicity on one side and underwater superoleophobicity on the other side inspired by the Janus feature of the lotus leaf. The ingenious design on lotus leaf surfaces, superhydrophobicity on its upper side and underwater superoleophobicity on its lower side, not only helps us thoroughly understand the special surface wettability of the lotus leaf, but also gives a typical example of multi-functionality in biological systems. This study supplies us with an intelligent strategy to design and create bionic multi-functional interface materials.

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.
