Liquid-infused surfaces (or lubricant-infused surfaces)(LIS) are a new class of functional
materials introduced in 2011. Their exceptional properties have earned them a place at the …

A gas in between micro-or nanostructures on a submerged superhydrophobic (SHPo)
surface allows the liquid on the structures to flow with an effective slip. If large enough, this …

In the field of interface science, superwettability and photocatalysis are two significant
research hot spots. Currently, wettability has been proved to be a decisive factor to enhance …

Recently, there has been much interest in using lubricated surfaces to achieve extreme
liquid repellency: a foreign droplet immiscible with the underlying lubricant layer was shown …

Ice accumulation on outdoor structures can cause costly damage to this exposed
infrastructure. Research has therefore focused on means of protecting these surfaces from …

Interfacial materials with special wettability have become a burgeoning research area in
materials science in the past decade. The unique surface properties of materials and …

Rough or patterned surfaces infused with a lubricating liquid display many of the same
useful properties as conventional gas-cushioned superhydrophobic surfaces. However …

Liquid-infused surfaces (LISs) are composite solid–liquid surfaces with remarkable features
such as liquid repellency, self-healing, and the suppression of fouling. This review focuses …

Marine corrosion and biofouling are the biggest challenges to the security of marine
engineering equipment and offshore structures. Slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces …

The development of bioinspired interfacial materials with enhanced drop mobility that mimic
the innate functionalities of nature will have a significant impact on the energy, environment …
