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 …

A fundamental limitation of liquids on many surfaces is their contact line pinning. This
limitation can be overcome by infusing a nonvolatile and immiscible liquid or lubricant into …

The rapid and controllable sliding of droplets on anisotropic slippery liquid infused porous
surfaces (SLIPS) has promising application prospects in the fields of energy, lab-on-a-chip …

In this book, the authors discuss some of the main challenges and new opportunities in
science and engineering research, which involve combining computational and …

Liquid directional self-transport on the functional surface plays an important role in both
industrial and academic fields. Inspired by the natural cactus spine and pitcher plant, we …

Spontaneous droplet transport without mass loss has great potential applications in the
fields of energy and biotechnology, but it remains challenging due to the difficulty in …

The use of waterborne acrylic coatings in anticorrosion applications is challenging owing to
the existence of numerous hydrophilic carboxyl groups. Hence, the objective of this study …

Preventing the accretion of droplets on surfaces is vital and slippery liquid‐infused porous
surfaces (SLIPS) have promising application prospects, such as surface self‐cleaning and …

Often wetting is considered from the perspective of a single surface of a rigid substrate and
its topographical properties such as roughness or texture. However, many substrates, such …

Passive droplet manipulation on open surfaces can be achieved by creating a wettability
gradient on surfaces, which is essential in the fabrication of low cost biological and …
