Robust omniphobic surfaces by mimicking the springtail skin morphology
Springtails (Collembola) are wingless arthropods that are impressively adapted to cutaneous respiration in temporarily rain-flooded habitats by non-wetting skin morphology. Recapitulating the robust and effectively liquid-repellent surface characteristics of springtail skin in engineered materials m...
