“…Superhydrophobic properties are demonstrated by plants, birds' wings, legs of water striders and other natural objects (Blossey 2003;Gao & Jiang 2004;Bormashenko et al 2007a;Quéré & Reyssat 2008). Various sophisticated experimental techniques including UV-lithography and plasma etching have been applied for manufacturing lotus-like biomimetic surfaces (Blondiaux et al 2009;Jeong et al 2009). Typical superhydrophobic wetting is shown in figure 1: an 8 ml droplet is deposited on the polymer water-repellent surface.…”

Biomimetic hierarchical surfaces demonstrate a potential for a variety of green technologies, including energy conversion and conservation, owing to their remarkable water repellence. The design of such surfaces allowing emerging green applications remains a challenging scientific and technological task. Understanding the physical mechanism of wetting transitions (WTs) is crucial for the design of highly stable superhydrophobic materials. The main experimental and theoretical approaches to WTs are reviewed. Reducing the micro-structural scales is the most efficient measure needed to enlarge the threshold pressure of WTs. The trends of future investigations are envisaged.

“…Here, c SV is the surface tension of the solid substrate, and c SL and c LV are the solid/liquid and liquid/air interfacial tensions, respectively. As is well known, S eq is positive or zero for complete wetting, while S eq is negative for partial wetting, leading to liquid rupture and dewetting [16][17][18]. In the presence of dewetting, lCP is difficult to control precisely, in part due to increased contribution from capillary forces and high mobility of a liquid film.…”
