Superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces generally refer to those having a static water contact angle larger than 150° and a slide angle less than 10°, when both the surface and the water droplet are at room temperature.

The following study investigates splashing of impinging water droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces with and without the presence of a stagnation flow. Droplets were accelerated by either gravity or gravity and co-flow. By changing the height and the air flow velocity different combinations of stagnation flow and droplet velocity were created. The spreading diameter, spreading velocity and contact time were studied for different air and droplet speeds. It was clearly observed that for a fixed impact velocity (i.e. constant Weber number), the presence of the stagnation flow promotes splashing and formation of satellite droplets. Consequently, for the co-flow droplet impact experiments, the mass of the recoiled droplet is significantly smaller than that of the impinging droplet in still air.

A kind of low-molecular weight organic gelator (LMOG) bearing hydrazine linkage and end-capped by alkoxy-substituted phenyl, namely 1, 4-bis[(3, 4-bisoctyloxyphenyl)hydrozide]phenylene (BPH-8), was used to facilely fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces by drop-casting...

We investigated a one-step method for calcium superhydrophobic surface preparation and researched the formation process of loose, flower-like microstructures. Also, we found that the pressing force strongly impacts the dynamics of water droplets.
