7. Superhydrophobic coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhydrophobic_coating

   A superhydrophobic coating is a thin surface layer that repels water. It is made from superhydrophobic (also known as ultrahydrophobic) materials, and typically cause an almost imperceptibly thin layer of air to form on top of a surface. Droplets hitting this kind of coating can fully rebound. [1][2] Generally speaking, superhydrophobic ...
