Abstract

Technologies of hydrophobic coating on solid surface are important for various industrial items to impart functions such as antibeading, anti-rusting, anti-snow adhesion, self-cleaning, and lubrication. In recent, the demands of these functions are upgrading, and further improvements of performance are necessary. To meet today’s requirements, detailed understandings on the relation between solid characteristics (such as structure, chemical composition, and their arrangement) and static/dynamic hydrophobicity is indispensable. So far, the research on this relation has been conducted in the part of fluid mechanics, tribology, and surface chemistry. However, recent researches revealed that static and dynamic liquid droplet behaviors are affected by nano-scale surface characteristics on hydrophobic solids, and the importance of the viewpoint from materials science is gradually increasing in this topic. This paper presents a review of recent studies on the relation between solid characteristics and static/dynamic hydrophobicity, mainly of the past decade of our group.
