Abstract

We report a novel and facile approach to achieve a self-cleaning, flexible, transparent, template free, cheap and non-toxic polymeric film. The superhydrophobic surface will become active only by peeling off the laminated polymer film; this kind of “instant superhydrophobic surface” can be delivered to customers as “peel and use”.
