There are a lot of pee - repellent surfaces , but nothing as unbelievable as this fresh miracle textile that — according to research published in Nature — repels water manner beyond “ what was previously thought potential . ” As you’re able to see in the clip above , the water bounce entirely off the surface as fast as potential , leaving nothing behind .
Its inventors say it ’s inspired by lotus ’ folio and butterfly ’s wings plan , which are the most efficient water repellent surfaces in the planet , way more than any artificial material — until now .
Their method acting is quite clever : alternatively of reducing the middleman surface of the fabric , as is traditionally done , they interpolate its texture at the nano floor to change the water drop ’s hydrodynamics . The surface ’s morphology redistributes the water ’s mass , they say , which “ trim the overall middleman time between a rebound drop and a surface ” and therefore keeps things dry .
