“…Inspired by nature, such as lotus leaves, rose petals, , and water striders, , superhydrophobic surfaces with a water contact angle (CA) over 150° and a sliding angle (SA) below 10° have attracted tremendous attention in both academic and industrial fields in the last few decades. Artificial superhydrophobic coatings can be achieved with a low surface energy and a high surface roughness. − Common superhydrophobic surfaces possess functions of self-cleaning, anti-fouling, , and de-icing , and can be used in oil–water separation, , UV protection, − and anti-corrosion applications. , Superhydrophobic coatings with optical transparency can be expanded to glass products, including windshields, house windows, eyeglasses, solar panels, and other non-glass materials, such as textile, paper, wood, etc. ,,− …”
