Hydrophobic surfaces and materials possess unique properties that enable them to repel water and resist wetting. These surfaces typically have low surface energy and may feature micro- or nano-scale roughness, which creates air pockets or trapped gas layers that enhance water repellency. The combination of surface chemistry, surface morphology, and interfacial interactions leads to reduced adhesion and high contact angles between water droplets and the surface, causing water to bead up and roll off easily. Hydrophobic surfaces find applications in various industries, including textiles, ...
