Publication number: 20170233586Abstract: Provided is a super water-repellent layer structure. The super water-repellent layer structure comprises a substrate having a ratchet structure formed on the upper surface thereof and a super water-repellent nanowire structure formed on the ratchet structure, wherein water drops can move in one direction without an external force. A super water-repellent layer structure can be provided which enables water drops to move in one direction using the ratchet structure and the super water-repellent nanowire structure even without force applied from the outside in a state in which the surface thereof is hardly inclined. Thus, such a super water-repellent layer structure can be applied to various industries such as water harvesting, drainage of condensation water of a heat exchanger, etc., a microfluidic industry.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2014Publication date: August 17, 2017Applicant: Industry-University Cooperation Foundation Hanyang UniversityInventors: Dong Rip KIM, Kwan-Soo LEE, Youngjun CHO, Kyuho LEE, Jihyun JUN
