Synergistic chemical patterns on a hydrophilic slippery liquid infused porous surface (SLIPS) for water harvesting applications

Chemical patterning on hydrophilic-SLIPS is employed for efficient (∼4400 mg cm⁻² h⁻¹) water harvesting. The association of a chemical pattern with hydrophilic-SLIPS allowed accelerated growth of water droplets from fog and immediate shedding of mature water droplets.
