Cover background photo: Fluoroalkylsilane treated multi-color red granite is both hydrophobic and oleophobic.
The Stenocara beetle, an African desert species, harvests water that adsorbs on superhydrophilic bumps on its back, then transfers droplets into superhydrophobic channels that lead to its mouth.
