Although the superhydrophobic surfaces are preferable for passive anti-icing systems, as they provide water shedding before initiation of ice nucleation, their practical usage is still under debate. This is so, as the superhydrophobic materials are not necessarily icephobic and most of the synthesis techniques are characterized with low fabrication scalability. Here, we describe a rational strategy...
The fabrication of superhydrophobic coatings using a candle flame or rapeseed oil has become very attractive as a novel approach for synthesis of water repellent surfaces. Here, we report an improved, simplified and time-efficient method for the preparation of robust superhydrophobic carbon soot that does not require any additional stabilizers or chemical treatment. The soot's inherent stabilization...
