SUPERHYDROPHOBIC COATINGS--PART A: THE LOTUS EFFECT The lotus leaf has been known for some time to exhibit ultra-hydrophobic characteristics.
In part, it is responsible for the so-called lotus effect [12-14] if the surface is inherently hydrophobic and exhibits surface features down to the nanometer scale.
Its strength, and this is where the Lotus effect is most clearly felt, comes courtesy of the Proton's chassis and the resulting firm ride and precise, enjoyable handling.
