The team mainly engaged in the research of the synthesis and preparation of biomimetic interface materials in the field of interdisciplinary science, mainly in the following aspects:
1) By learning from nature, studying the special infiltration of the surface of a variety of organisms, revealing the formation mechanism of superhydrophobicity on the surface of organisms, providing a basis for the design and preparation of related bionic interfaces and smart materials;
2) Biomimetic preparation of super-hydrophobic interface materials, and realizing a multi-functional combination of super-hydrophobic surfaces, and at the same time combining different types of special wettability, such as super oleophobic/super hydrophobic (super double hydrophobic), super lipophilic/super hydrophilic (super amphiphilic), super oleophobic/superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic/super oleophilic combination to establish a bionic superhydrophobic interface material system;
3) Through systematic research on the structure and characteristics of interface materials, the "dual synergy effect of nano interface materials" was proposed, and the biomimetic micro-nano composite structure was creatively combined with external field responsive molecular design to achieve the reversible change of material surface wettability under the control of single or multiple external fields;
4) By extending the dual (pro-/sparse) design concept of a single physical property (infiltration) to other physical property systems, a design program for biomimetic intelligent multi-scale interface materials is proposed, which provides a new method for the development of biomimetic interface material systems.
