Formation, adhesion, and accumulation of ice, snow, frost, glaze, rime, or their mixtures can
cause severe problems for solar panels, wind turbines, aircrafts, heat pumps, power lines …

Due to their exceptional anti-icing, anti-corrosion, and anti-drag qualities, biomimetic metal-
derived superwetting surfaces, which are widely employed in the aerospace, automotive …

Superhydrophobic coatings with contact angles (CAs)> 150° and sliding angles (SAs)< 10°
have become the focus of research and industrial development studies for water repellency …

For extending the lifespan of practical applications, a robust and self-healing
superhydrophobic cotton fabric was successfully fabricated by facile dip coating and UV …

Hybrid superhydrophobic sol-gel coatings were synthesized and applied on glass
substrates. Low surface energy was obtained by using hydrophobic organo-functionalized …

Engineered superhydrophobic coating for anti-corrosion applications is a subject of great
