| Abstract | Surfaces that exhibit extreme wetting properties such as superhydrophobic and/or slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) rely heavily on their surface energy and roughness. Although the bioaccumulation and dramatic ecological impact of perfluorinated building blocks are obvious, perfluorination of surfaces is still the most utilized method for lowering the surface energy. Herein we present a simple, substrate-independent, completely fluorine free and environmentally friendly concept for the construction of various super-wetting systems. Taking advantage of a mussel-inspired polyglycerol we successfully fabricated superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic and slippery surfaces by the precise design of a highly hierarchical structure. Additionally, the superhydrophobic coating was used to transfer commercially available cellulose and polystyrene 3D sponges into stable superhydrophobic but superoleophilic absorbent materials for oil/water separation. Moreover, the alkylated, hierarchical structure can serve as a matrix to efficiently capture hydrocarbon liquids as a lubricant that results in SLIPS. Surprisingly, common sunflower oil from the supermarket showed the same performance as pure chemicals such as hexadecane. Both the superhydrophobic and the slippery surfaces showed a similar performance regarding liquid and cell repellency in comparison to their fluorinated analog. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
