Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain.

(a) Schematic of the thermodynamic states of gas bubbles spreading on textured surfaces. The stability of the states is dictated by both the microtexture and surface chemistry. The scale bar represents 0.5 mm; (b) Plot of the apparent contact angle of water (θ*w) on a textured surface (Wenzel roughness r = 2, solid fraction Φs = 0.4) versus Young's contact angle of water on a flat surface (θw). The theoretically predicted regime of stable underwater gas wetting or aerophilicity is also indicated by the shading in the plot. Plastron recovery is favored only in the region shaded in green. 249x146mm (144 x 144 DPI)

Regime map for plastron reinflation experiments on Si-Pt-Teflon surfaces with varying texture parameters. The colors indicate whether plastron recovery was observed: plastron recovery (green) and blisters (red); The shape of the markers indicate the shape of the posts: cylindrical pillars (circles), square cylindrical pillars (square). The marker filling indicates whether the catalyst was deposited on the pillar tops: no catalyst on top (filled), catalyst on top (hollow). 175x134mm (144 x 144 DPI)

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces

(a) Micrograph of square pillars (width 100 µm, height 200 µm, and spacing 100 µm) machined on an aluminum rotor of radius Ri = 14 mm and coated with MnO2 and a fluorinated silane; (b) Drop of water (V = 12 µL)sitting on the hydrophobized machined rotor used for plastron recovery (θadv = 159±2; θrec = 109±5); (c) Schematic of the Taylor-Couette cell used for drag reduction measurements with fluid port for H2O2 injection; (d) Unwrapped views of the cylindrical surface of the rotor before plastron failure, after plastron failure, and after partial plastron recovery. This image was produced by imaging the rotating rotor at constant speed, and stitching together vertical sections of the rotor captured across one entire rotation. (e) Plot of the average wall shear stress, ζw, experienced by the rotor in the Taylor-Couette cell at Re = 47,000 during the initial period of drag reduction (Cassie state), plastron failure (Wenzel state) and plastron recovery (partial Cassie) stages. 249x239mm (144 x 144 DPI)
