Preparation of stable superhydrophobic mesh with a biomimetic hierarchical structure

Abstract

Stable superhydrophobic meshes with a biomimetic hierarchical structure were fabricated via simple electropolymerization and chemical polymerization processes. Because the multi-scale hierarchical structure provides a stable superhydrophobic state by maintaining a Cassie state, these meshes have high static and dynamic waterproof capabilities.
