Ultraslippery/hydrophilic patterned surfaces for efficient fog harvest

Biao Qi et al.

Summary: This study reported the fabrication of hydrophilic patterned SLIPS on copper substrates that can achieve efficient droplet transport and fog harvest. The hydrophilic patterned SLIPS with superhydrophilic stripe array showed remarkable anisotropy in contact angle hysteresis in the parallel and perpendicular directions, which can be used for rapid and precise droplet transport.
