The researchers' new coating manufacturing method allows them to control the size of the grooves. They first add the ceramic material onto a sheet of polystyrene layer by layer.

Tests with model particles made of polystyrene show that the coating's surface structures must be smaller than the particles that are deposited on it. This reduces the contact surface and thus the ...
