Zusammenfassung:In article number 1704912, Yong Chen and co‐workers demonstrate a biomimetic superhydrophobic microstructure inspired by the Salvinia molesta leaf using the immersed surface accumulation 3D‐printing process. The controllable adhesive force can be easily tuned with a different number of eggbeater arms. The 3D‐printed eggbeater structures have numerous applications including as microhands for droplet manipulation and microreactors, and for 3D cell culture, oil‐spill clean‐up, and oil/water separation.
