Condensation on ultrahydrophobic surfaces and its effect on droplet mobility : ultrahydrophobic surfaces are not always water repellant

The condensation of water was studied on topography-based ultrahydrophobic surfaces containing hydrophobized silicon pillars. Optical microscopy showed that water nucleated and grew both on top of and between the pillars. As condensation progressed, water between the pillars became unstable and was...
