What is offered here is not a comprehensive review of the latest research but rather a compendium of principles. How does one turn a hydrophilic surface in

<p>As I glance out my window in the early morning, I can see beads of droplets gracing a spider web. The film of dew that has settled on the threads is unstable and breaks up spontaneously into droplets. This phenomenon has implications for the treatment of textile fibers (the process known as "oili
