PH-tunable gradients of wettability and surface potential

Smart materials that can sense and respond to changes in the environment are of interest in numerous and diverse applications. In this paper, we report gradient surfaces where wettability and surface potential respond to changes in the pH. The gradients are produced by controlling the concentration...
