“…Therefore, authors utilized electrospinning to increase the roughness of polystyrene substrates, usually creating two-level micro/nanostructures. Several authors 62,63,67,70,74 studied the influence of electrospinning parameters on the surface roughness and hydrophobicity of the resulting webs. In addition, some papers discussed the effect of additives, like nanoparticles, 76,86 ionic liquid 75 and polyaniline (PANI), 71 blended with a solution before electrospinning.…”

Self-cleaning surface is potentially a very useful addition for many commercial products due to economic, aesthetic, and environmental reasons. Super-hydrophobic selfcleaning, also called Lotus effect, utilizes right combination of surface chemistry and roughness to force water droplets to form high contact angle on a surface, easily roll off a surface and pick up dirt particles on its way. Electrospinning is a promising technique for creation of superhydrophobic self-cleaning surfaces owing to a wide set of parameters that allow effectively controlling roughness of resulted webs. This article gives a brief introduction to the theory of super-hydrophobic selfcleaning and basic principles of the electrospinning process and reviews the scientific literature where electrospinning was used to create superhydrophobic surfaces. The article reviewed are categorized into several groups and their results are compared in terms of superhydrophobic properties. Several issues with current state of the art and highlights of important areas for future research are discussed in the conclusion. V C 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…32 There are also methods based on the combination of both bottom-up and top-down approaches, for example, casting of polymer solution and phase separation, 33 and electrospinning. 34 Among these methods, the application using two-dimensional (2D) colloidal crystals, "natural lithography", which has been suggested by Deckman and Dunsmuir, 35 has attracted attention due to it being a relatively easy process in comparison with conventional lithography. 35 Based on such a process, uniformly sized microstructures could be produced on a substrate using a monolayer coating of colloidal spheres instead of a conventional resist.…”

The adhesion between a micro-object and a microgripper end-effector is an important problem in micromanipulation. Canceling or reducing this force is a great challenge. This force is directly linked to the surface chemical structure of the object and the gripper. We propose to reduce the adhesion force by using a self-assembled monolayer structuring on one surface. The surface was structured by polystyrene latex particles (PS particles) with radii from 100 to 1500 nm. The adhesion force measurements obtained by AFM were compared to a multisphere van der Waals force model. The model suggests the existence of an optimal value of the sphere radius which minimizes the adhesion. In that case, the pull-off force is reduced to 20 nN by the PS particles layer with a radius of 45 nm. A wide range of applications in the field of telecommunications, bioengineering, and more generally speaking, MEMS can be envisaged for these substrates.

The adhesion between a micro/nano-object and a micro-gripper end-effector is an important problem in micromanipulation. Cancelling or reduction this force is a great challenge.This force is directly linked to the surface chemical structure of the object and the gripper. We propose to predict this force between a structuring surface and a micro-object with a multisphere van der Waals force model. The surface was structured by polystyrene latex particles (PS particles) with radii from 35 to 2000 nm. The model was compared with experimental pulloff force measurement performed by AFM with different natures of spheres materials glued on the tipless. A wide range of applications, in the field of telecommunications, bioengineering, and more generaly speaking MEMS can be envisaged for these substrates. † FEMTO-ST Institute ‡ IEMM ¶ EMPA
