Fig. 1. Fibrin fiber generation on the superhydrophobic CNF surface.

Fig. 1

a SEM image of the superhydrophobic CNF/PTFE Ti surface and a water droplet sitting on this surface demonstrates excellent superhydrophobicity. b Long fibrin fibers generated at the receding side of a 10 μl EDTA PPP droplet. c Touch-lift test of a PPP droplet on the CNF surface, showing fiber generation upon EDTA PPP-substrate separation. d Zoomed-in sequential frames of the fiber generation and fracture during the EDTA PPP droplet (20 μl) rolling down motion (Supplementary Movie 1). e Visible fibrin fiber footprints left on the CNF surface after the PPP sliding test (inset is a top view). Scale bar is 10 μm in a.
