Interfacial fluid manipulation with bioinspired strategies: special wettability and asymmetric structures† The inspirations from nature always enlighten us to develop advanced science and technology. To survive in complicated and harsh environments, plants and animals have evolved remarkable capabilities to control fluid transfer via sophisticated designs such as wettability contrast, oriented micro-/nano-structures, and geometry gradients.

Unidirectional Liquid Manipulation of JSDI Asymmetric interfaces with Janus wettability provide a useful method to realize unidirectional liquid penetration. For JSDI, the complex structure of hydrophobic copper mesh and the hydrophilic water-absorbing layer is a typical Janus interface with large pores.
