Liquid-repellent surfaces, such as superhydrophobic superoleophobic and slippery liquid-infused have drawn keen research interest from the communities engaged in chemical synthesis, interfacial chemistry, surface engineering, bionic manufacturing micro-nano machining. This is due to their great potential applications liquid-proofing, self-cleaning, resistance, anti-icing, water/oil remediation, biomedicine, etc. However, poor robustness durability that notably hinders real-world of surfaces remains Achilles heel. The past few years witnessed rapidly increasing publications address liquid-repellent many breakthroughs been achieved. review provides an overview recent progress made towards robust durable surfaces. First, we discuss wetting solid its generally-adopted characterisation methods, introduce typical Second, focus on various evaluation methods Third, advances design fabrication are reviewed detail. Fourth, present where these employed fields like biology daily life. Finally, possible perspectives By presenting state-of-the-art this significant fast-developing area, believe will inspire multidisciplinary scientific industrial circles develop novel can meet requirements applications.

To fight against global warming, subambient daytime radiative cooling technology provides a promising path to meet sustainable development goals. achieve cooling, the reflection of most sunlight is essential prerequisite. However, desired high solar reflectance easily dampened by environmental aging, mainly natural soiling and ultraviolet irradiation from causing yellowish color for polymers, making ineffective. We demonstrate simple strategy use titanium dioxide nanoparticles, with resistance, forming hierarchical porous morphology via evaporation-driven assembly, which guarantees balanced anti-soiling reflectance, rendering anti-aging paint based coatings. challenge coatings in an accelerated weathering test simulated 3 years 1 year sunshine, find that only declined 0.4% 0.5% compared un-aged ones. further show over 6 months aging under real-world conditions barely no degradation performance. Our scalable can be spray coated on outdoor architecture container, presenting durable applications.

Superhydrophobic coatings are expected to solve the rain attenuation issue of 5G radomes. However, it is very challenging design and construct such superhydrophobic with good impalement resistance, mechanical robustness, weather which remains as one main bottlenecks hindering their practical applications. Here, we report all these merits mentioned above by spray-coating a suspension adhesive/fluorinated silica core/shell microspheres onto substrates. The formed phase separation adhesive adhesion between fluorinated nanoparticles. have an approximately isotropic three-tier hierarchical micro-/micro-/nanostructure, dense but rough surface at nanoscale, chemically inert composition low energy. Consequently, show excellent robustness resistance compared previous studies, mechanisms revealed. Furthermore, realize large-scale preparation, extension, application for efficiently preventing 5G/weather By taking advantages, believe that great potential market prospect. findings here will boost preparation real-world applications coatings.

Abstract Since superwetting surfaces have emerged, on‐demand oil/water separation materials serve as a new direction for meeting practical needs. This mode uses single porous material to allow oil‐removing and water‐removing be achieved alternately. In this review, the fundamentals of wettability are systematically summarized in separation. Most importantly, two states, bioinspired surface intelligent surface, Specifically, include micro/nanostructures, chemistry, Janus‐featured surfaces, dual‐superlyophobic that these can possess asymmetric one structure system or opposite underliquid by prewetting. Furthermore, an adopted various triggers such pH, thermal photo stimuli, etc., control switchable reversibly, expressing thought beyond nature realize innovative external stimuli. Remarkably, review also discusses advantages all mentioned above, expanding scope from mixtures multiphase immiscible liquid–liquid mixtures. Finally, prospects concluded.
