Rose Petal Effect

Like lotus leaf and rose petal, the canna leaf also has excellent super hydrophobicity.The purpose of this paper is to systematically study the super hydrophilicity of canna leaf. Using SEM to observe the morphology of the canna leaf, and analytical balance to measure the adhensive force between water droplet and the leaf . This paper shows that the first type of the canna leaf which has co-exsitence of the nanocrumb and micro-scale convex cells has the high contact angle and low contact angle hysteresis similar to lotus leaf. The another type on the leaf has high contact angle but high adhesion in a certain extent like the rose petal effect, whose microstructure unitarily simple has the micro convex cells, do not distributed anything of nanoscale.

Active Investigation

The wetting of rough surfaces remains a subject of active investigation by scientists. The contact angle (CA) is a traditional parameter used to characterize the hydrophobicity/philicity of a solid surface. However, it was found recently that high CAs can coexist with strong adhesion between water and a solid surface in the case of the so-called ‘rose petal effect’. Several additional parameters have been proposed to characterize the interaction of water with a rough solid surface, including the CA hysteresis, the ability of water droplets to bounce off a solid surface, the tilt angle needed to initiate the flow of a droplet, and the normal and shear adhesion. It is clear now that wetting is not characterized by a single parameter, since several modes or regimes of wetting of a rough surface can exist, including the Wenzel, Cassie, lotus and petal. Understanding the wetting of rough surfaces is important in order to design non-adhesive surfaces for various applications.
