Abstract
Water wetting induced corrosion is the core issue for uncovering the corrosion mechanism in multiphase flow environments, relevant to many industrial applications. Here, we experimentally investigated the dynamic failure of an oil film attached on the pre-wetted model surfaces by the electrochemical current detection using an "Alternate Wetting Cell" and the direct visualization of near-wall fluid states. The oil pre-wetted surface performed a superior corrosion mitigation efficiency, exhibiting a protective oil film with a duration time at least 5 times longer than the water pre-wetted surface. It confirms that the oil film rupture is a combined process of the local penetration and pinning of micro-droplets and the phase redistribution of the near-wall fluids. Corrosion finally initiates and propagates on the surface once the droplets pin there or damage the oil film. The result suggests new control strategies for materials corrosion in complex systems by surface modification and fluid management.

Abstract
Further exploration is needed for sustainable and precise droplet manipulation on intelligent surfaces, especially the problem of SLIPS failure caused by lubricant loss. In this work, a self-mediating photothermal lubrication surface was designed. Through a simple preparation method, it was possible to generate a new lubrication layer through near-infrared light (NIL) and perform sustainable and precise droplet manipulation even after the surface lubricant was consumed. The thermal expansion film obtained from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and nano ferric oxide, combined with the connected structure obtained through laser etching technology, effectively preserve lubricating oil. After the surface lubricating oil is consumed, under the action of NIL, the lubricating oil inside the film is squeezed out, forming a new lubricating layer. At the same time, programmable droplet transport can be achieved by inducing the direction of NIL. After turning off NIL, the lubricating oil is absorbed into the network structure, achieving good circulation. This not only reduces the loss of lubricating oil, but also facilitates the manipulation of droplets. In addition, the movement (plane and antigravity) and splitting behavior of droplets are also discussed. This sustainable and precise manipulation of liquid droplets on the LSSPF (lubricant self-mediating slippery PDMS films) surface can be widely applied in various micro reaction devices.

Abstract
Anti-icing coatings on outdoor infrastructures inevitably suffer from mechanical injuries in numerous icing scenarios such as hailstorms, sandstorms, impacts of foreign objects, and icing-deicing cycles. Herein, the mechanisms of surface-defect-induced icing are clarified. At the defects, water molecules exhibit stronger adsorption and the heat transfer rate increases, accelerating the condensation of water vapor as well as ice nucleation and propagation. Moreover, the ice-defect interlocking structure increases the ice adhesion strength. Thus, a self-healing (at -20 °C) antifreeze-protein (AFP)-inspired anti-icing coating is developed. The coating is based on a design that mimics the ice-binding and non-ice-binding sites in AFPs. It enables the coating to markedly inhibit ice nucleation (nucleation temperature < -29.4 °C), prevent ice propagation (propagation rate < 0.00048 cm2/s), and reduce ice adhesion on the surface (adhesion strength < 38.9 kPa). More importantly, the coating can also autonomously self-heal at -20 °C, as a result of multiple dynamic bonds in its structure, to inhibit defect-induced icing processes. The healed coating sustains high anti-icing and deicing performance even under various extreme conditions. This work reveals the in-depth mechanism of defect-induced ice formation as well as adhesion, and proposes a self-healing anti-icing coating for outdoor infrastructures.

Abstract
In this paper, the interaction mechanism between the solid–liquid–gas interface phenomenon caused by nanostructure and surface wettability and boiling heat transfer is described, and the heat transfer theory of single wettable nanostructure surface and mixed wettable nanostructure surface is proposed. Through molecular dynamics simulation, the thermodynamic model of the wettable surface of nanostructures is established. The nanostructures are set as four rectangular lattice structures with a height of 18 Å. The solid atoms are platinum atoms, and the liquid atoms are argon atoms. The simulation results show that with the increase of surface hydrophilicity of nanostructures, the fluid temperature increases significantly, and the heat transfer at the interface is enhanced. With the increase in surface hydrophobicity of nanostructures, the atoms staying on the surface of nanostructures are affected by the hydrophobicity, showing a phenomenon of exclusion, and the evaporation rate in the evaporation area of nanostructures is significantly increased. In addition, the mixed wettable surface is influenced by the atomic potential energy and kinetic energy of the solid surface, and when compared with the pure wettable surface under the nanostructure, it changes the diffusion behavior of argon atoms on the nanostructure surface, enhances the heat transfer phenomenon compared with the pure hydrophobic surface, and enhances the evaporation phenomenon compared with the pure hydrophilic surface. This study provides insights into the relationship between the vapor film and the heating surface with mixed wettability and nanostructures.

Abstract
Liquid-repellent surfaces, especially smooth solid surfaces with covalently grafted flexible polymer brushes or alkyl monolayers, are the focus of an expanding research area. Surface-tethered flexible species are highly mobile at room temperature, giving solid surfaces a unique liquid-like quality and unprecedented dynamical repellency towards various liquids regardless of their surface tension. Omniphobic liquid-like surfaces (LLSs) are a promising alternative to air-mediated superhydrophobic or superoleophobic surfaces and lubricant-mediated slippery surfaces, avoiding fabrication complexity and air/lubricant loss issues. More importantly, the liquid-like molecular layer controls many important interface properties, such as slip, friction and adhesion, which may enable novel functions and applications that are inaccessible with conventional solid coatings. In this Review, we introduce LLSs and their inherent dynamic omniphobic mechanisms. Particular emphasis is given to the fundamental principles of surface design and the consequences of the liquid-like nature for task-specific applications. We also provide an overview of the key challenges and opportunities for omniphobic LLSs.

Abstract
Multicellular tumor spheroids are the most well-characterized organotypic models for cancer research. Generally, scaffold-based and scaffold-free techniques are widely used for culturing spheroids. In scaffold-free techniques, the hanging drop (HD) method is a more versatile technique, but the retrieval of three-dimensional (3D) cell spheroids in the hanging drop method is usually labor-intensive. We developed oil-coated polystyrene nanofiber-based reusable slippery surfaces for the generation and easy retrieval of 3D spheroids. The developed slippery surfaces facilitated the rolling and gliding of the cell medium drops as well as holding the hydrophilic drops for more than 72 h by the virtue of surface tension as in the hanging drop method. In this study, polystyrene nanofibers were developed by the facile technique of electrospinning and the morphological evaluation was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cryo-FESEM. We modeled the retrieval process of 3D spheroids with the ingredients of 3D spheroid generation, such as water, cell culture media, collagen, and hyaluronic acid solution, demonstrating the faster and easy retrieval of 3D spheroids within a few seconds. We created MCF-7 spheroids as a proof of concept with a developed slippery surface. 3D spheroids were characterized for their size, homogeneity, reactive oxygen species, proliferative marker (Ki-67), and hypoxic inducing factor 1ά (HIF-1ά). These 3D tumor spheroids were further tested for evaluating the cellular toxicity of the doxorubicin drug. Hence, the proposed slippery surfaces demonstrated the potential alternative of culturing 3D tumor spheroids with an easy retrieval process with intact 3D spheroids.

Abstract
Porous materials with super-wetting surfaces (superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic) are ideal for oil/water separation. However, the inability to monitor the pollution degree and self-cleaning during the separation process limits their application in industrial production. In this study, a porous metal-based hydrogel is proposed, inspired by the porous structure of wood. Porous copper foam with nano-Cu(OH)2 is used as the skeleton, and its surface is coated with a polyvinyl alcohol, tannic acid, and multiwalled carbon nanotube cross-linked hydrogel coating. The hydrogel has superhydrophilicity and excellent oil/water separation efficiency (>99%) and can adapt to various environments. This approach can also realize hydrogel pollution degree self-detection according to the change in the electrical signal generated during the oil/water separation process, and the hydrogel can also be recovered by soaking to realize self-cleaning. This study will provide new insights into the application of oil/water separation materials in practical industrial manufacturing.

Abstract
Marine biofouling remains one of the key challenges for maritime industries, both for seafaring and stationary structures. Currently used biocide-based approaches suffer from significant drawbacks, coming at a significant cost to the environment into which the biocides are released, whereas novel environmentally friendly approaches are often difficult to translate from lab bench to commercial scale. In this article, current biocide-based strategies and their adverse environmental effects are briefly outlined, showing significant gaps that could be addressed through advanced materials engineering. Current research towards the use of natural antifouling products and strategies based on physio-chemical properties is then reviewed, focusing on the recent progress and promising novel developments in the field of environmentally benign marine antifouling technologies based on advanced nanocomposites, synergistic effects and biomimetic approaches are discussed and their benefits and potential drawbacks are compared to existing techniques.

Abstract
The accumulation of ice and contaminants on the surface of composite insulators will cause high energy consumption or even major hazards to power systems. In this work, the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) silicone rubber was modified by surface micropatterning and material compositing. Highly crosslinked poly(cyclotriphosphazene-co-4,4'-sulfonyldiphenol) (PZS) was used to directly coat ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. The obtained core-shell Fe3O4@PZS microspheres were loaded with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to get CNTs/Fe3O4@PZS as the photothermal magnetic filler. The PDMS/CNTs/Fe3O4@PZS surfaces with micronscale truncated cones were prepared via a combined method of compression molding and magnetic attraction. The 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane-coated template and magnetic field can increase the height of the microstructure to ∼76 μm and maintain the contact angle of microstructured PDMS/CNTs/Fe3O4@PZS surfaces at a high level (∼152°). Compared with the flat PDMS surface, the micronscale truncated cones extend the freezing time from 4.5 to 11.5 min and also undermine the ice adhesion strength from ∼25 to ∼17 kPa for the microstructured PDMS/CNTs/Fe3O4@PZS surface. The temperature of the PDMS/CNTs/Fe3O4@PZS surface molded with magnetic attraction increases linearly with time and the internal magnetic fillers and achieves 280 °C in 10 s. The efficiency of temperature rise is increased by ∼46%, and hence the entire frozen water droplet can melt within 20 s. The strategy combining active deicing with passive anti-icing undoubtedly promotes the development of high efficiency anti-icing materials and can be applied on insulators to prevent icing flashover.

Abstract
High-performance membranes for simultaneously removing insoluble emulsified oils and soluble organic dyes are in urgently demand for industrial wastewater treatment, but are strictly limited by the single-function and serious fouling problem. Herein, a dual-functional membrane with excellent antifouling ability for efficiently dye/oil/water emulsion separation has been fabricated by growing flower-like metal-organic frameworks (MIL-53-OH) on polyacrylonitrile/polyethyleneimine membrane for the first time. The synergistic effect of the hierarchical flower-like structure and superhydrophilic compositions with high hydration ability endows the obtained membrane with a stable and ultra-strong oil-repelling hydration layer, thus imparting the membrane formidable oil resistance and exceptional oil/water emulsion separation performance (permeate flux>4000 L m-2 h-1). What's more, the superhydrophilic compositions render the membrane an excellent dye remove capacity by electrostatic forces and hydrogen bonding. The membrane rejections for dyes and emulsified oils are above 99%, and the dyes and oils on the used membrane can be easily washed away with methanol and water, respectively, confirming that the membrane has desirable recyclability. Besides, the membrane possesses excellent mechanical performance and outstanding acid and alkali resistance, indicating that the membrane is a promising candidate for removing insoluble emulsified oils and soluble dyes.

Abstract
Lubricant-impregnated surfaces are two-component surface coatings. One component, a fluid called the lubricant, is stabilized at a surface by the second component, the scaffold. The scaffold can either be a rough solid or a polymeric network. Drops immiscible with the lubricant, hardly pin on these surfaces. Lubricant-impregnated surfaces have been proposed as candidates for various applications, such as self-cleaning, anti-fouling, and anti-icing. The proposed applications rely on the presence of enough lubricant within the scaffold. Therefore, the quality and functionality of a surface coating are, to a large degree, given by the extent to which it prevents lubricant-depletion. This review summarizes the current findings on lubricant-depletion, lubricant-replenishment, and the resulting understanding of both processes. A multitude of different mechanisms can cause the depletion of lubricant. Lubricant can be taken along by single drops or be sheared off by liquid flowing across. Nano-interstices and scaffolds showing good chemical compatibility with the lubricant can greatly delay lubricant depletion. Often, depletion of lubricant cannot be avoided under dynamic conditions, which warrants lubricant-replenishment strategies. The strategies to replenish lubricant are presented and range from spraying or stimuli-responsive release to built-in reservoirs.

Abstract
Constructing a slippery lubricant-infused surface (SLIS) whose internal microstructure and surface properties can be fully repaired helps to improve its property stability and extend technological implications but has presented a huge challenge. A class of fully repairable slippery organogel surfaces (SOSs), which uses microstructured paraffin as reconfigurable supporting structure and silicone oil as lubricant dispersion medium, is reported here. Attributed to nearly 90 wt % of silicone oil stored in the slippery organogel system and good compatibility with the paraffin-based framework, SOSs combine continuous lubricity and reliable lubricant storage stability. Furthermore, the thermally sensitive paraffin-based framework can quickly switch between solid supporting structure and liquid solution according to the ambient temperature, thereby achieving rapid regeneration of microstructure. This unique system consisting of reconfigurable framework and flowable lubricant derives two types of repairs aimed at varying degrees of damage. Significantly, the easy-to-prepare SOS, on the other hand, allows the adoption of various substrate surfaces for different purposes to form an antiadhesion coating and exhibits excellent antistain, antialgae, and anti-icing performance, thus greatly improving the flexibility of such materials in practical applications.

Abstract
Lotus-effect-based superhydrophobicity is one of the most celebrated applications of biomimetics in materials science. Due to a combination of controlled surface roughness (surface patterns) and low-surface energy coatings, superhydrophobic surfaces repel water and, to some extent, other liquids. However, many applications require surfaces which are water-repellent but provide high friction. An example would be highway or runway pavements, which should support high wheel–pavement traction. Despite a common perception that making a surface non-wet also makes it slippery, the correlation between non-wetting and low friction is not always direct. This is because friction and wetting involve many mechanisms and because adhesion cannot be characterized by a single factor. We review relevant adhesion mechanisms and parameters (the interfacial energy, contact angle, contact angle hysteresis, and specific fracture energy) and discuss the complex interrelation between friction and wetting, which is crucial for the design of biomimetic functional surfaces.

Abstract
Slippery surfaces, inspired by the functionality of trapping interfaces of specialized leaves of pitcher plants, have been widely used in self-cleaning, anti-icing, antifrost, and self-healing surfaces. They can be fabricated on metallic surfaces as well, presenting a more durable and low-maintenance anticorrosive surface on metals. However, the lack of studies on the durability of these slippery surfaces at high temperature prohibits their practical deployment in real industrial applications where thermal effects are critical and high temperature conditions are inevitable. We present here a unique fabrication technique of a copper-based oleoplaned slippery surface that has been tested for high temperature durability under repeated thermal cycles. Their slipperiness at high temperatures has also been tested in the absence of the Leidenfrost effect. Our findings suggest that these new substrates can be used for fabricating low maintenance surfaces for high temperature applications or even where the surface undergoes repeated thermal cycles like heat exchanger pipes, utensils, engine casings, and outdoor metallic structures.

Abstract
Inspired by lotus leaves, superhydrophobic surfaces (SHS) have been fabricated by many methods due to their various properties such as self-cleaning, anti-corrosion, and anti-biofouling properties. In recent years, inspired by Nepenthes pitcher plants, the 'slippery liquid-infused porous surface' (SLIPS) has attracted numerous researchers' attention because it not only shows ability corresponding to SHS but also exhibits durability in some aspects due to the continuous and homogeneous liquid-infused surfaces. In this paper, we firstly used a facile hydrothermal method and modification to fabricate SHS on a Mg alloy substrate. After the infusion of a lubricant by a spin-coating method, the transformation from the SHS to SLIPS can be achieved. The SLIPS exhibits an excellent self-cleaning property compared to the SHS, except that the water droplet rolls on the SHS and slides on the SLIPS. Moreover, the SLIPS demonstrates better anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling properties, and is obviously superior to SHS for use on the Mg alloy substrate. The enhanced anti-corrosion and anti-biofouling properties of the SLIPS are because the continuously infused lubricant replaces the air trapped in the micro-pores. Importantly, compared with SHS, the SLIPS shows excellent thermally assisted healing properties. The results of this work indicate that the SLIPS is expected to be an efficient method for improving the water-repellent, self-cleaning, anti-biofouling and anti-corrosion properties of magnesium alloys.

Abstract
The use of nucleation and growth inhibitors at offshore oil industry to avoid inorganic scaling could be replaced by both physical and chemical modifications at surfaces to prevent the scaling. In that way, the slippery lubricated surfaces have been showing promising results as scaling preventers, notably when the lubricants are perfluorinated oils, which are immiscible with almost every kind of compound. Nonetheless, the requirement of periodically refilling these lubricant oils is disadvantageous, especially when dealing with deep sea facilities. Using petroleum as the lubricant oil could skip the refilling step, since it is always present in the extraction medium. So, this work tests the effectiveness of petroleum as the lubricant oil in functionalized textured polyaniline applied as anti-scaling material in conditions that simulate the medium of offshore operation. As result, petroleum as lubricant oil presents effective anti-scaling capacity and works perfectly in slippery lubricated surfaces.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS State-of-the-art superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) usually do not function in high humidity and frosty climate conditions. Lubricant-infused slippery surfaces (LISSs) with a homogeneous and ultraslippery surface are expected to be a reliable icephobic technique. Hence, the fabrication of simple and scalable bioinspired LISSs is important for practical applications. EXPERIMENTS Durable one-step LISSs consisting of silicone oil and polymer mixtures were fabricated. A grid map based on added oil and silica nanoparticles was developed to tune wettability, morphology, and slippery behavior of surfaces. A similar framework for ice adhesion of lubricant-infused coatings was also presented for the design of optimal icephobic materials. FINDINGS LISSs with slight hydrophobicity yield slippery properties, resulting in an order of magnitude lower ice adhesion compared to SHSs. The stable 20-w% silicone-oil-infused slippery coating with slight hydrophobicity and silica nanoparticles was found to be effective in anti-icing. The nanoparticles firmly anchor the oil overlayer and eliminate contamination by drying the surface. The LISSs made of polymers with surface energy ranging from 29 to 31 mJ/m2 show the potential to achieve low ice adhesion. As a result, the use of systematic frameworks highlights the role of material parameters. One-production strategy can be broadly used to design icephobic materials.

Abstract
Hierarchical honeycomb patterns were manufactured with breath-figures self-assembly by drop-casting on the silicone oil-lubricated glass substrates. Silicone oil promoted spreading of the polymer solution. The process was carried out with industrial grade polystyrene and polystyrene with molecular mass M w = 35 , 000 g m o l . Both polymers gave rise to patterns, built of micro and nano-scaled pores. The typical diameter of the nanopores was established as 125 nm. The mechanism of the formation of hierarchical patterns was suggested. Ordering of the pores was quantified with the Voronoi tessellations and calculation of the Voronoi entropy. The Voronoi entropy for the large scale pattern was S v o r = 0.6 - 0.9 , evidencing the ordering of pores. Measurement of the apparent contact angles evidenced the Cassie-Baxter wetting regime of the porous films.

Abstract
A hierarchical structured steel mesh decorated with metal organic framework (UiO-66-NH2) nanoparticles/graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets was successfully prepared via a simple self-assemble method. Because water molecules tend to build hydrogen bonds with the amine, carboxyl and hydroxyl functional groups of UiO-66-NH2/GO hierarchical structure, the hierarchical structure can easily capture water and tightly lock the water to build a stable water layer on the steel mesh surface and block oil in contact with the steel mesh. Therefore, the obtained hierarchical structured steel mesh exhibits super-hydrophilicity, underwater super-oleophobicity, excellent oil resistance and outstanding oil/water separation performance with a superior high permeating flux (54,500 L m-2 h-1) and rejection (>99.9%) under gravity force, indicating the mesh possesses great potential for treating oily wastewater.

Abstract
Anisotropic slippery surfaces are widely used in anti-fouling, smart control of liquid movement and directional liquid transportation. However, anisotropic slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) cannot meet the need of practical applications owing to loss and contamination of liquid lubricants. Inspired by solid epicuticular wax on the surface of land plant leaves, we herein report a type of biomimetic anisotropic solid slippery surface (ASSS) based on paraffin wax-incorporated paper with directional micro-grooves. This ASSS material shows anisotropic sliding behavior for liquid droplets with different surface tensions. It is demonstrated to be of excellent stability compared with SLIPS as the solid lubricant cannot be lost and stain the contacting surfaces. It also exhibits outstanding acid and alkali corrosion resistance and restoration capability upon physical damage. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic contaminants on our ASSS can be self-cleaned by using only water droplets. Our ASSS extends the fabrication of new slippery materials and overcomes some drawbacks of SLIPS.

Abstract
When an air bubble or an oil droplet in a nanofluid (liquid containing dispersed nanoparticles) approaches a solid surface, a nanofluid film is formed between the bubble or drop and a solid substrate. The nanoparticles confined in the film surfaces tend to self-layer and the film thins in a stepwise manner. The wetting behavior and film stability criteria valid for the classical molecularly thin films cannot be applied to nanofilm. Here we present an overview of the structure and stability of multilayer nanofilms wetting solid surfaces. We first present a brief review of the classical concept of molecular films wetting solid, and then we discuss the nanofluid film structure evolution as determined by the in-layer radial distribution function versus nanofilm's number of layers. The role of the particle volume fraction, size and polydispersity on the layering phenomenon is highlighted. The stability of the nanofilm, that is its layer-by-layer thinning is elucidated by the presence of particle voids or dislocations. We calculated the free energy of the nanofilm on a solid surface based on nanofilm osmotic pressure. We independently verified it by the direct measurement of the nanofilm-meniscus contact angle using reflected light interferometry. Finally, we present some practical applications of a wetting aqueous film for oily soil removal from a solid surface and the nanofilm displacing an oil phase from a capillary as in an enhanced oil recovery operation.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic and lubricated slippery surfaces were tested under high salinity inorganic scaling medium and had their antifouling capacity assessed by optical and electron microscopy. The superhydrophobic surfaces were build up with hierarchically rough electropolymerized polyaniline onto stainless steel substrates and functionalized with low-polarizability thiols. Subsequently, these materials were lubricated with perfluorinated oil to obtain slippery surfaces. Regardless of the large amount of inorganic scale found onto superhydrophobic surfaces after the scaling test, the slippery ones showed to be very efficient as fouling preventers. From crystal quartz microbalance experiments, the wetting regime of the superhydrophobic surfaces was evaluated and shows that the Cassie-Baxter effect was not lost during the entire scaling test. The interfaces energies of the systems were assessed with contact angle experiments and showed that the scaling increases because the interfacial free energy is minimized. These results lead to a better understanding of how superhydrophobic surfaces could induce inorganic scaling instead of preventing it.

Abstract
Herein, a simple self-assembly method is proposed for the fabrication of MoO2 -based superhydrophobic material with record high contact angles (contact angle up to about 173°) for conductive metal oxides on hard/soft substrates. The spin-coated surface demonstrates excellent oil-water separation efficiency (>98%) after 50 cycles and robust corrosion resistance after immersion into different pH solutions for 20 d. These water-resistant coatings retain excellent superhydrophobicity after oil immersion, knife-scratch, and long-cycle sandpaper abrasion, which is not observed on most artificial surfaces. Meanwhile, the functionality switching from superhydrophobicity to supercapacity, which have an inverse relationship in aqueous solutions because of poor electrode wettability, is achieved simply by editing the raw materials source. Tuning of the raw materials leads to the same product MoO2 /graphitic carbon with different morphologies and functionalities. Different from superhydrophobic MoO2 /carbon ball flowers, MoO2 nanotubes with carbon exhibit excellent supercapacity with a large gravimetric capacitance and great cycling stability.

Abstract
This paper describes a simple, straightforward, and rapid method for producing microspheres from molten polymers by merely printing them in an inkjet-like manner onto a superoleophobic surface (microsphere printing, hence SPHRINT). Similar to 3D printing, a polymer melt is deposited onto a surface; however, in contrast to 2D or 3D printing, the surface is not wetted (i.e. exhibiting high contact angles with liquids, above 150°, due to its low surface energy), resulting in the formation of discrete spherical microspheres. In this study, microspheres were printed using polycaprolactone and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) loaded with a model active pharmaceutical ingredient-ibuprofen (IBU). The formation of microspheres was captured by high-speed imaging and was found to involve several physical phenomena characterized by non-dimensional numbers, including the thinning and breakup of highly viscous, weakly elastic filaments, which are first to be described in pure polymer melts. The resulting IBU-loaded microspheres had higher sphericity, reproducible sizes and shapes, and superior drug encapsulation efficiencies with a distinctly high process yield (>95%) as compared to the conservative solvent-based methods used presently. Furthermore, the microspheres showed sustained release profiles.

Abstract
Oil spills and an increasing demand for the treatment of industrial oily wastewater are driving the need for continuous large-scale oil/water separation processes. Herein, we report a nanofibrous cellulosic membrane (NFC membrane) for the continuous high-flux separation of large amounts of oil/water mixtures. The NFC membrane was fabricated using wet electrospinning, a facile yet effective method for stacking nanofibrous membranes with uniform porous structures on a substrate. Owing to its cellulosic nature, the membrane showed excellent underwater superoleophobicity along with robust chemical stability and was able to separate oil/water mixtures at efficiencies exceeding 99%. Repetitive oil/water separations could be performed using a single membrane, during which the oil content in the filtrate remained extremely low (<29 ppm). The nanofibrous membrane exhibited a fine porous structure that was interconnected throughout the membrane, resulting in a high oil intrusion pressure (>30 kPa) that allowed not only gravity-driven but also pressure-driven separation of oil/water mixtures. The separation flux reached 120 000 L m-2 h-1 during pressure-driven separations, which is a very promising feature for actual applications such as the large-scale treatment of industrial oily wastewater.

Abstract
Accomplishing mechanically robust omniphobic surfaces is a long-existing challenge, and can potentially find applications in bioengineering, tribology and paint industries. Slippery liquid impregnated mesoporous α-Al2O3 interfaces are achieved with water, alkanes, water based and oil based high viscosity acrylic paints. Incredibly high abrasion-resistance (wear coefficients ≤10-8 mm3 N-1 m-1) and ultra-low friction coefficients (≥0.025) are attained, attributing to the hard alumina matrix and continuous replenishment of perfluoropolyether aided by capillarity and surface diffusion processes. A variety of impregnating liquids employed suggest that large molecules, faster surface diffusion and lowest evaporation rate generate the rare combination of high wear-resistance and omniphobicity. It is noteworthy that these novel liquid impregnated Al2O3 composites exhibit outstanding load bearing capacity up to 350 MPa; three orders of magnitude higher than achievable by the state of the art omniphobic surfaces. Further, our developed thermodynamic calculations suggest that the relative thermodynamic stability of liquid impregnated composites is linearly proportional to the spreading coefficient (S) of the impregnating liquid with the matrix material and is an important tool for the selection of an appropriate matrix material for a given liquid.

Abstract
Various organogel materials with either a liquid or solid surface layer have recently been designed and prepared. These surface materials can substantially reduce the adhesion of foreign deposits such as water, blood, paint, ice, and so on; therefore, they exhibit great potential for the easy removal of foreign deposits. Here, a brief discussion about the mechanism of organogel materials in reducing adhesion is given; then, examples of liquid organogels for fighting against varieties of complex fluidic deposits are presented, and efforts in preventing the depletion of liquid are discussed. Finally, applications of antiadhesion organogels with multifunctionality, and the strategy of replacing liquids with solids are presented.

Abstract
Background and Aims Floating sweet-grass ( Glyceria fluitans ) can form aerial as well as floating leaves, and these both possess superhydrophobic cuticles, so that gas films are retained when submerged. However, only the adaxial side of the floating leaves is superhydrophobic, so the abaxial side is directly in contact with the water. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of these different gas films on underwater net photosynthesis ( P N ) and dark respiration ( R D ). Methods Evolution of O 2 was used to measure underwater P N in relation to dissolved CO 2 on leaf segments with or without gas films, and O 2 microelectrodes were used to assess cuticle resistance of floating leaves to O 2 uptake in the dark. Key Results The adaxial side of aerial leaves was more hydrophobic than the abaxial side and also initially retained a thicker gas film when submerged. Underwater P N vs. dissolved CO 2 of aerial leaf segments with gas films had a K m of 172 mmol CO 2 m -3 and a P max of 7·1 μmol O 2 m -2 s -1 , and the leaf gas films reduced the apparent resistance to CO 2 uptake 12-fold. Underwater P N of floating leaves measured at 700 mmol CO 2 m -3 was 1·5-fold higher than P N of aerial leaves. The floating leaves had significantly lower cuticle resistance to dark O 2 uptake on the wettable abaxial side compared with the superhydrophobic adaxial side. Conclusions Glyceria fluitans showed high rates of underwater P N and these were obtained at environmentally relevant CO 2 concentrations. It appears that the floating leaves possess both aquatic and terrestrial properties and thus have 'the best of both worlds' so that floating leaves are particularly adapted to situations where the plant is partially submerged and occasionally experiences complete submergence.

Abstract
Liquid-based mobile interfaces, in which liquids are being utilized as structural long-term components, have shown their multifunctionality in materials science, such as the hydration layer of polyelectrolyte brushes used for artificial implants, stabilized lubricants for antibiofouling, anti-icing, self-cleaning, optical control, and so forth. However, these currently available systems do not usually show a response to environmental stimuli. Here, we describe a strategy for preparing thermoresponsive mobile interfaces made from novel silicone-based lubricants that display lower critical solution temperature and demonstrate their capabilities on controlling in situ water wetting and dewetting, thermo-gating penetration, and optical properties. These properties allow the mobile films to form a kind of erasable recording platforms. We foresee diverse applications in liquid transport, wetting and adhesion control, and transport switching.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic surfaces have the potential to reduce the viscous drag of liquids by significantly decreasing friction at a solid-liquid interface due to the formation of air layers between solid walls and interacting liquids. However, the trapped air usually becomes unstable due to the finite nature of the domain over which it forms. We demonstrate for the first time that a large surface energy barrier can be formed to strongly pin the three-phase contact line of air/water/solid by covering the inner rotor of a Taylor-Couette flow apparatus with alternating superhydrophobic and hydrophilic circumferential strips. This prevents the disruption of the air layer, which forms stable and continuous air rings. The drag reduction measured at the inner rotor could be as much as 77.2%. Moreover, the air layers not only significantly reduce the strength of Taylor vortexes but also influence the number and position of the Taylor vortex pairs. This has strong implications in terms of energy efficiency maximization for marine applications and reduction of drag losses in, for example, fluid transport in pipelines and carriers.

Abstract
We describe a highly effective bubble-propelled nanomotor for the photocatalytic decomposition of organic pollutants in water. Two different tubular TiO2 nanomotor systems are presented: one with Pt nanoparticles decorated on the inner surface and the other with Pt nanoparticles decorated on the outer surface. This is the first time that we have observed the autonomous movement of a tubular nanomotor without the aid of any surfactant, as well as a tubular nanomotor externally decorated with Pt propelled by oxygen bubbles. The synergy between the Pt nanoparticles and the superhydrophilic wetting behavior of the TiO2 nanotubes endows the two nanomotor systems with high speed at very low H2O2 fuel concentrations without the addition of any surfactant. The efficient photodecomposition of rhodamine B demonstrates the intermixing and photocatalytic ability of the two nanomotor systems, which opens new avenues for the development of multifunctional bubble-propelled micro/nanomotors with myriad practical applications.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
Developing an effective system to clean up large-scale oil spills is of great significance due to their contribution to severe environmental pollution and destruction. Superwetting membranes have been widely studied for oil/water separation. The separation, however, adopts a gravity-driven approach that is inefficient and discontinuous due to quick fouling of the membrane by oil. Herein, inspired by the crossflow filtration behavior in fish gills, we propose a crossflow approach via a hydrophilic, tilted gradient membrane for spilled oil collection. In crossflow collection, as the oil/water flows parallel to the hydrophilic membrane surface, water is gradually filtered through the pores, while oil is repelled, transported, and finally collected for storage. Owing to the selective gating behavior of the water-sealed gradient membrane, the large pores at the bottom with high water flux favor fast water filtration, while the small pores at the top with strong oil repellency allow easy oil transportation. In addition, the gradient membrane exhibits excellent antifouling properties due to the protection of the water layer. Therefore, this bioinspired crossflow approach enables highly efficient and continuous spilled oil collection, which is very promising for the cleanup of large-scale oil spills.
