Key features enabling water repellency in velvet worm skin: Overhanging scales and carbonate-wax synergy

Nature has evolved sophisticated surface architectures to achieve non-wettability and self-cleaning performance under challenging environmental conditions. In this study, we elucidate the multiscale chemical and structural mechanisms underlying the exceptional water-repellent and anti-adhesive prope...
