Cover Story: We investigated the effect of hydrophilic or hydrophobic coatings on the antiadhesive properties of bioinspired laser-induced periodic nanostructures. These nanostructures mimic the antiadhesive structures on the silk-combing area on the legs of cribellate spiders, the calamistrum. The thin films were deposited by matrix-assisted laser deposition. The largest adhesion forces towards spider threads were observed on hydrophilic coatings and the lowest ones on hydrophobic coatings. This can be explained by the adhesion between individual chemical groups due to frequency dependencies in the theory of van der Waals forces. However, explaining adhesion properties just by the categories “hydrophilic” or “hydrophobic” is oversimplified. View this paper
