Hyperelastic superomniphobic surfaces via microprotrusion-induced stress redistribution
In this work, we report hyperelastic superomniphobic surfaces that have been engineered to retain superomniphobicity, without coating delamination, even at 400% strain and after thousands of stretch–release cycles. To achieve such hyperelastic superomniphobic surfaces, we introduce a novel design – an array
