| The roughness surface structure with covering waxes on the surface of lotus make it a super-hydrophobic (SH) and self cleaning characteristics. Lotus leaf has a low surface energy (wax) and rough surface with micro and nano hierarchical structure. These factors make it a super-hydrophobic (SH) property (Water contact angle (WCA) is greater than 150) and having self cleaning ability. |
