Abstract

Bio-inspired surfaces with wettability patterns display a unique ability for liquid manipulations. Sacrificing anti-wetting property for confining liquids irrespective of their surface tension (γLV), remains a widely accepted basis for developing wettability patterns. In contrast, we introduce a ‘liquid-specific’ wettability pattern through selectively sacrificing the slippery property against only low γLV (
