Superhydrophobic displays are instead believed to be made available in time for the release of the Galaxy S9, since it would take time for the tech giant to manufacture panels with integrated
hydrophobic property.
While most research has focused on
the hydrophobic properties of such surfaces, it turns out that their thermal properties are also crucially important — and provide an unexpected opportunity to «tune» those surfaces to meet the exact needs of a given application.
