Abstract

Micro droplet handling is very important for micro and nano fluidic devices and an intelligent bio interface. Micro droplet transfer via a high adhesive superhydrophobic surface has been reported in recent years. We demonstrated water droplet adhesion controllable superhydrophobic metal-polymer surfaces. Moreover we achieved micro droplet transfer between superhydrophobic surfaces by using different droplet adhesion properties. Water micro droplets were transferred from a low-adhesive superhydrophobic surface to a midium-adhesive superhydrophobic surface via a high-adhesive superhydrophobic surface without any mass loss. After droplet transfer, water contact angle was about 150°. Droplet handlings on the adhesive superhydrophobic surfaces will be expected for fluidic bio devices with energy saving.
