“…Oil/Water Separation. Frequent oil leakage accidents and discharge of oily industrial wastewater cause substantial economic losses and seriously pollute the natural ecological environment [40][41][42][43]160]. Yong et al proposed a method for separating oil-water mixtures via the femtosecond laser-structured superhydrophobic porous PTFE sheet (Figure 14(d)) [103].…”

Wettability is one of a solid surface’s fundamental physical and chemical properties, which involves a wide range of applications. Femtosecond laser microfabrication has many advantages compared to traditional laser processing. This technology has been successfully applied to control the wettability of material surfaces. This review systematically summarizes the recent progress of femtosecond laser microfabrication in the preparation of various superwetting surfaces. Inspired by nature, the superwettabilities such as superhydrophilicity, superhydrophobicity, superamphiphobicity, underwater superoleophobicity, underwater superaerophobicity, underwater superaerophilicity, slippery liquid-infused porous surface, underwater superpolymphobicity, and supermetalphobicity are obtained on different substrates by the combination of the femtosecond laser-induced micro/nanostructures and appropriate chemical composition. From the perspective of biomimetic preparation, we mainly focus the methods for constructing various kinds of superwetting surfaces by femtosecond laser and the relationship between different laser-induced superwettabilities. The special wettability of solid materials makes the femtosecond laser-functionalized surfaces have many practical applications. Finally, the significant challenges and prospects of this field (femtosecond laser-induced superwettability) are discussed.

“…Though nanostructured strategy could solve the solid-state diffusion issue in thick electrodes, the deteriorated wettability of the electrode with the electrolyte, the increased ion transfer distance, and the limited charge transport kinetics induce the considerable polarization and inferior rate performance, especially at high charging/discharging current densities. [36,37] Thus, a high Li-ion diffusivity in the electrolyte is also necessary. The effective ionic diffusion coefficient D eff in electrolytes can be defined as [38] eff…”

vehicles (HEVs), because of their high energy density and long lifetime. [1][2][3] In recent years, the ever-growing demand on electric vehicles contributes to the continuous growth of the battery market, and the energy storage devices of EVs/HEVs raise stern demands on higher energy density (>300 Wh kg −1 ) and lower cost (500 Wh kg −1 ), and the standard parameters for different electrode systems toward this high energy density goal are well summarized in the previous works. [7][8][9] In particular, the innovative battery chemistries (i.e., Li-metal battery and all-solid-state lithium battery) using Li metal as anode, exhibit much higher energy density than current lithium-ion batteries, whereas some technological issues are needed to be addressed first, such as dendrite formation suppression, industrial battery Current lithium-ion battery technology is approaching the theoretical energy density limitation, which is challenged by the increasing requirements of ever-growing energy storage market of electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and portable electronic devices. Although great progresses are made on tailoring the electrode materials from methodology to mechanism to meet the practical demands, sluggish mass transport, and charge transfer dynamics are the main bottlenecks when increasing the areal/volumetric loading multiple times to commercial level. Thus, this review presents the state-of-the-art developments on rational design of the commercialization-driven electrodes for lithium batteries. First, the basic guidance and challenges (such as electrode mechanical instability, sluggish charge diffusion, deteriorated performance, and safety concerns) on constructing the industry-required high mass loading electrodes toward commercialization are discussed. Second, the corresponding design strategies on cathode/anode electrode materials with high mass loading are proposed to overcome these challenges without compromising energy density and cycling durability, including electrode architecture, integrated configuration, interface engineering, mechanical compression, and Li metal protection. Finally, the future trends and perspectives on commercializationdriven electrodes are offered. These design principles and potential strategies are also promising to be applied in other...

“…6,7 The frequently used term 'special wettability' describes materials with extreme wetting properties featuring liquid contact angles above 150 at the liquid/air/solid interface or smaller than 10 at the water/oil/ solid interface. 8 Such materials featuring special wettability have shown remarkable performance for separating oils from Andreas Schneemann grew up in Sprockhövel, a small town in the Ruhr valley on the west side of Germany. In 2016 he obtained his PhD in inorganic chemistry from Ruhr-University Bochum under the guidance of Roland A. Fischer working on exible metal-organic frameworks.…”
