Lotus Effect:
Inspired by Nature
In the mid-seventies, two botanists investigated whether there was a connection between plant species through the surface structures of leaves.
What started as a routine job led to an incredible discovery. They came to the view that some plants needed washing before research while others did not.
But under the microscope, botanists concluded that only leaves with smooth surfaces required washing and that these flat leaves repelled water. Result: A plant's self-cleaning capacity depends on whether the leaf gets wet - this capacity applies to the lotus flower Nelumbeo Nucifera applies to it.
Self-Cleaning
Water droplets carry dust particles with them
Can Be Developed Artificially
Therefore, self-cleaning principles can be developed artificially
