The present invention is a method of applying Lotus Effect materials as a (superhydrophobicity) protective coating for various system applications, as well as the method of fabricating/preparing Lotus Effect coatings.

The lotus effect (lotus blossom effect) describes the behaviour of ultrahydrophobic surfaces.

The lotus effect: fluoropolymers turn oil into beads

Even the lotus effect has been taken for this property.

Microclean also creates a lotus effect making them easier to clean.

This phenomenon is also known as the “Lotus Effect.

This phenomenon is also known as the “Lotus Effect”.

In one embodiment, hydrophobic fibers have a sufficiently small diameter to create a lotus effect.

In one embodiment, hydrophobic fibers have a sufficiently small diameter to create a lotus effect.

Angle is close to 180 ° = ultrahydrophobic surface, completely liquid-repellent, lotus effect

The invention relates to self-cleaning paint coatings that exhibit the Lotus effect® and to an agent and a method for producing the same.

The surfaces that are difficult to wet with water combined with a suitable structure are referred to as so-called lotus effect surfaces.

In the case of ultrahydrophobic materials with the so-called lotus effect, the contact angle approaches the theoretical limit of 180°.

Hereby is obtained a composite with a hydrophobic and lotus-like surface yielding good self-cleaning properties and which is on the same time self-regenerating.

The plaster bricks are covered with a superhydrophobic polymer — a phenomenon called “lotus effect” — on which drops of water slide.
