Design of Fluoro‐Free Surfaces Super‐Repellent to Low‐Surface‐Tension Liquids

for perfluoroalkyls). The dimethyl silicone variant demonstrates superior fluoro-free liquid repellency likely due to its denser dimethyl molecular configuration. It is shown that perfluoroalkyls are not necessary for many real-world scenarios requiring super-liquid-repellency. Effective super-repellency of different surface chemistries against different liquids can be adequately predicted using empirically verified phase diagrams. These findings encourage a liquid-centric design, i.e., tailoring surfaces for target liquid properties. Herein, key guidelines are provided for achieving functional yet sustainably designed super-liquid-repellency.
