Bioinspired Solid Organogel Materials with a Regenerable Sacrificial Alkane Surface Layer.
Advanced Materials 2017 July
In nature, lifetime-long functionalities of land plant leaves rely on the regenerability as well as the solid feature of the epicuticular wax layer. Inspired by the regenerable solid epicuticular wax on land plant leaf surfaces, herein a type of solid organogel material with regenerable sacrificial alkane surface layer is reported. This type of surface material is demonstrated to be of great practical importance for tackling solid deposition, such as anti-icing, antigraffiti, and antifouling, since the deposited foreign materials can be easily removed together with the alkane surface layer. Significantly, the solid alkane layer does not contaminate nearby surfaces due to its solid nature in both working and stand-by conditions, which is completely different to liquid-infused materials.
