Micropatterned Hydrogel‐Elastomer Hybrids for Flexible Wet‐Style Superhydrophobic Antifogging Tapes (Adv. Funct. Mater. 34/2024)
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Superhydrophobic Antifogging Tapes In article number 2401869, Sungjune Jung, Hyomin Lee, and co-workers propose a new surface design strategy that can be applied to various transparent materials for simultaneously achieving antifogging and self-cleaning properties. The monolithic micropillar structure ensures mechanical stability and facilitates easy contaminant removal while the hydrogel patterns guide water condensation, preserving optical transparency in fogging conditions.
