We present a newly developed bioinspired microspine array (BMSA), inspired by the energy gradient in cactus multispines and liquid film sliding mechanism of rice leaves. Notably, unmodified BMSA modified (MBMSA) with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) demonstrate ultrafast directional transport water oil droplets, respectively, achieving velocities as high 102.27 237.42 mm/s. These are 1-3 orders magnitude faster than previously reported values. The structural microspines provides primary driving force for self-transportation, while MWCNT coating facilitates uniform formation, reducing hysteresis resistance. demonstrates capability to separate collect complex environments enables efficient antigravity pumping. Additionally, MBMSA has been utilized fog harvesting device (FHD), an impressive collection efficiency 16,392 mg/h/cm2, representing 61.62% improvement compared original device.

Abstract The integration of photothermal de‐icing and micro/nanostructured anti‐icing technologies into a surface is regarded as promising solution to solve ice accretion aggravated. Unfortunately, light‐dependent heat effect large‐scale production micro/nano building still challenge the ability applications for real‐world. Herein, stick‐and‐play film embedded with bioinspired thermal‐management cells developed. Inspired by hollow framework lotus seedpods, hydrophobic microcells (THMC) are designed incorporating candle soot insulating porous diatomite. Once embedding such PDMS substrate, resulting THMC delivers effective since synergy insulation design. COMSOL simulations demonstrate thermal management “framework” “photothermal seeds,” which causes increases in heating rate 20% equilibrium temperature 10%. Moreover, self‐similarity structure THMCs enable them have durable hydrophobicity (148.7°) (79.9 °C) even after repeated abrasions. When functionality imparted designing adjustable milli‐suction cups, this could adhere effectively various surfaces despite dry humid conditions while maintaining efficient anti‐/de‐icing capabilities. This study provides strategy robust films constructed from finds flexible use diverse surfaces.
