A functional micro resists structures with tactile characters of the human are developed due to sweat, sebum and water influence. A new method of tactile sensory evaluation with the pentagon-shaped graph is employed. It is found that the micro pattern acts to wet and to feel smooth and comfortable by immersing some kinds of liquids. By the surface energy analysis, the tactile sensory evaluation can be explained at the point of wetting nature.
