Abstract
Superhydrophobic soft and hard nanofibers with various water adhesions are obtained by electrodeposition of poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (ProDOT) derivatives containing two branched alkyl chains. In the case of the hard nanofibers, the fibers are vertically aligned to the substrate and their characteristics can be easily controlled but always with high water adhesion.
