Laboratorium. Russia has created superhydrophobic surfaces that repel water
The surfaces are not afraid of dust, ultraviolet light, or corrosion. The unique protective layer, which is produced using a laser and special impregnations, holds up well on almost any hard material. For example, on plastic, stone, glass, and metal.
In this episode of Laboratorium we will tell you how the miracle surface affects the aerodynamics of an aircraft, what makes a super-thin relief mesh similar to a lotus leaf, and how the know-how of scientists from the capital can save roofs from icicles.
