Bioinspired and Biomimetic Wetting Properties Open
We review the bioinspiration and biomimetism, for which wetting properties are involved. Nature is able to capture or repel liquids such as water, following the needs. The most famous example of water repellency is the Lotus leaves, but nu…

Extremely Long Nanoribbons Comparable to Gecko Foot by Soft‐Template Electropolymerization From Triphenylamine‐Based Monomers Open
Bio‐inspiration shows the importance of surface structures particularly for the wetting properties. Here, a soft‐template electropolymerization is used in micellar condition to form surface nanotubes by favoring π ‐stacking interactions. V…

Fine Tuning of Surface Structures by Soft‐Template Electropolymerization Open
Numerous natural species form surface structures for repelling all kind of liquids. It is demonstrated that nanotubes are an exceptional candidate. Here, nanotubes are formed by soft‐template electropolymerization. Two stereoisomers of ben…

Cupric Oxide Nanostructures from Plasma Surface Modification of Copper Open
Taking inspiration from the hydrophilic and superhydrophilic properties observed from the nanostructures present on the leaves of plants such as Alocasia odora, Calathea zebrina, and Ruelia devosiana, we were able to synthesize cupric oxid…
