Abstract

Superhydrophobic surfaces are found in nature and possess several fascinating properties, including the ability to self-clean. A typical superhydrophobic surface has micro/nanostructure roughness and low surface energy, which combine to give it its unusual anti-wetting properties. Because of their unique capabilities, these surfaces have interested scientists in research and industry fields for years. In recent decades, researchers have developed a number of synthetic methods for producing novel superhydrophobic surfaces that mimic natural surfaces. These synthetic surfaces have been widely applied on different types of substrates for potential widespread, practical applications. This review article focuses on these advances in fabricating manmade superhydrophobic surfaces.
