Popis: | Micro pillar arrays were fabricated on silicon surfaces based on the reactive ion etching technology. Low surface energy coatings were deposited on textured surfaces in order to prepare hydrophobic/superhydrophobic surfaces. After measuring the static contact angles and roll angles, the dynamic characteristics of droplets impacting on these hydrophobic/superhydrophobic surfaces were investigated in detail. Both the static contact angle and the roll angle increased with the increase of micro pillars' height. With the increase of micro pillars' spacing, the roll angle decreased, but the change of static contact angle was irregular. On superhydrophobic surfaces, the spreading coefficient of droplet was affected by both the static contact angle and the roll angle, and the rebounding coefficient of droplet was highly relevant with the roll angle. In addition, the bigger the incline angle of surface, the smaller the spreading coefficient and the smaller the rebounding coefficient of droplet. |
