The lotus leaf: how nature makes water-repellent materials.

Ever wonder what makes a material water-repellent? Hydrophobic materials can be useful in a myriad of applications, basically anywhere where you don't want your things to get wet. To figure out how to engineer materials with better hydrophobic properties, scientists have turned to nature (specifically, the lotus leaf) to study its intelligent design. Lotus leaves (pictured below) are well known for being superhydrophobic, so they serve as an excellent case study. Note: the concept of studying
