Inspired by Mother Nature, scientists of City University of Hong Kong (CityU) have discovered that the spreading direction of different liquids deposited on the same surface can be steered, a challenge that had remained unsolved for over two centuries.

Inspired by Mother Nature, scientists of City University of Hong Kong (CityU) have discovered that the spreading direction of different liquids deposited on the same surface can be steered, a challenge that had remained unsolved for over two centuries.

This breakthrough enriches our understanding of conventional solid-liquid interactions, and it has profound implications for a whole range of scientific and industrial contexts, such as fluidics design and heat transfer enhancement.
