Wetting of superhydrophobic surfaces: (a) Cassie state with entrapped air within the surface grooves; (b) Wenzel state with liquid filling the grooves. Dynamic wetting strongly depends on the prevailing mode of (a) versus (b): (c) the difference of advancing (θA) and receding (θR) CA is the measure of the surface hysteresis and droplet adhesion.
