Figure 5

Diagrams of (ac) force F, (df) capillary volume V, (gi) diameter of the de-wetted area on the superamphiphobic surface dc, (jl) angle β defining the de-wetted area on the particle and microscopic contact angles at the gas–liquid interface of the particle θp (mo), and on the superamphiphobic surface θs (pr) as a function of separation D for measurements in water, ethylene glycol and hexadecane. Error bars show the standard deviations. The piezo expansion rate was 0.2 µm s−1.
