Advanced Self-Cleaning Surfaces - Hardcover

by Maria Vittoria Diamanti (Guest Editor), Massimiliano D'Arienzo (Guest Editor), Carlo Antonini (Guest Editor)

Self-cleaning surfaces can be achieved using a variety of strategies, materials and technologies, and their applications are as wide as their production methods. The interdisciplinary topic "advanced self-cleaning surfaces" has collected a variety of approaches for self-cleaning, including theoretical approaches, as well as small-scale laboratory experiments and material validation in relevant environments, demonstrating how tailoring the surface for the nano- and micro-meter scale surface phenomena can affect the larger-scale phenomena. This reprint contains all articles included in the topical collection published across different journals-Materials, Membranes, Nanomaterials and Coatings-and is intended to be of help to the scientific community involved in this field to improve collaboration among diverse disciplines and promote novel insights across interdisciplinary research fields.
