From Sticky to Slippery: Self-Functionalizing Lubricants for In Situ Fabrication of Liquid-Infused Surfaces
Summary
Self-functionalising lubricants carry molecules that anchor to a surface primed with polydopamine, building the needed surface chemistry from inside the lubricant layer and creating liquid-infused repellent coatings in situ. Ellipsometry and QCM follow the functionalisation over time alongside contact angles, and the coatings cut cement adhesion on real shoe soles.
