Robust Superhydrophobic Conical Pillars from Syringe Needle Shape to Straight Conical Pillar Shape for Droplet Pancake Bouncing [component]

unpublished
Superhydrophobic conical pillars have great industrial application potential in, for example, anti-icing of aircraft wings and protecting high voltage transmission lines from freezing rain because of their droplet pancake bouncing phenomenon which is recognized to furthest reduce the liquidsolid contact time. However, there are still no methods that can large-scale fabricate robust
