A "non-sticky" superhydrophobic surface prepared by self-assembly of fluoroalkyl phosphonic acid on a hierarchically micro/nanostructured alumina gel film.
A hierarchically micro/nanostructured alumina gel film was prepared by using a simple sol-gel process; upon self-assembly of fluoroalkyl phosphonic acid, a "non-sticky" superhydrophobic surface was obtained.
