Popis: |
Self-cleaning behavior refers to the ability of a solid surface to remove contaminants under natural circumstances. This may be reached by two approaches. The former one is to achieve hydrophilic surfaces (water contact angle WCA 90°), causing droplets to form and roll over the surface quickly. Many research efforts have been made to find the extreme limits of wetting and non-wetting behavior by the development of a wide variety of engineered surfaces with superhydrophilic (WCA approaching zero) and superhydrophobic (WCA>150°) properties. |
