Reversible superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic conversion of Ag@TiO2 composite nanofiber surfaces.
TL;DR: A new type of superhydrophobic material consisting of a surface with supported Ag@TiO(2) core-shell nanofibers has been prepared at low temperature by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), one of the few examples existing in the literature where a superHydrophobic surface transforms reversibly into a superhydrophic one as an effect of light irradiation.
