Fig. 2

a Diagram of interfacial wettability reversal for hydrophilic-to-hydrophobic transformation accompanied by in-situ release of anion and changed continuously conductive network from electrolyte-mediated conductive network to reconstructed Cu and electrolyte-comediated continuous conductive network. b Scheme for structure of a series of anions for coordinating with Cu2+, containing acetate, oxalate, tartrate, acetylacetone, citrate, gluconate, EDTA, and Pc. c H2O contact angles and interfacial wettability of a series of Cu chelates. d First-cycled CV curves over a series of Cu chelates. Color code: grey (C), white (H), red (O), blue (N), orange (Cu).
