水なのに水をはじく？ Superhydrophobic Water – Part Ⅰ Ⅱ Ⅲ

By coating water with superhydrophobic aerogel powder one can achieve that the water forms a droplet which can be rolled over different surfaces without sticking on the surfaces. In this case the water was colored green. After coating, the water does not stick on the glas surface and the droplet rolls on the glas surface.

The “superhydrophobic” water droplets from the first part can be also rolled over paper. Here you can see two colored droplets close to each other on a normal white paper sheet. So the water droplets don’t stick on the paper and also don’t unify. The video was shot with a macro lens. The droplets are only about 2-4 mm in diameter. The needle in the video is needle from a syringe.
