Abstract
In this work, we investigate the freezing behavior and ice adhesion properties of sessile drops on micropillared superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) with various sizes, which are of practical importance for anti/deicing. First of all, it is demonstrated that the recalescence is related only to the supercooling degree of drops but not to the geometrical parameters of micropillars. The freezing time of sessile drops first increases and then decreases with the area fraction of the SHSs, which demonstrates the nonmonotonic dependence of the icing time on the area fraction. Moreover, the influence of the geometrical parameters of the micropillars on the ice adhesion is discussed. With the decrease of the substrate temperature, the wetting state of the adhesive ice can be transformed from the Cassie ice to the Wenzel ice. For the Cassie ice, the adhesive force is proportional to the area fraction of the SHSs. Interestingly, experimental results show that there exist two interfacial debonding modes of the Wenzel ice: translational debonding and rotational debonding. Furthermore, it is found that the rotational debonding mode contributes to a much lower adhesive force between the ice and the micropillared surface compared to that of the translational debonding mode. By analyzing the critical interfacial energy release rate of the two modes, we deduce the threshold between the two modes, which is quantified as the geometrical parameters of the micropillars. In addition, quantitative relations between the geometrical parameters and the adhesion strengths of the two modes are also obtained. We envision that this work would shed new light on the design optimization of anti/deicing materials.

Abstract
The organization of microporous space in zeolites is discussed. A new step-by-step model is proposed that explains the principles of organizing the hierarchy of microporous space at the stage of assembling zeolites from elements of minimal size: a primary building unit, secondary building units, tertiary building units or building polyhedra, a sodalite cage, and a supercage. To illustrate the stepwise hierarchical porous structure of nanomaterials, the following zeolites with small and large micropores have been selected as the model objects: sodalite (SOD, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.3 nm) and zeolites of type A (LTA, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.41 nm), type X, Y (FAU, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.75 nm), and type BETA (the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.67 nm). Two-dimensional and three-dimensional modeling in 3Ds Max software was used. We believe that such an approach will be useful for developing ways to create complex zeolite compositions for specific applications, such as catalysis, where the geometry of the pores determines the size of the molecules entering the voids and computer modeling can play an important predictive role. This work takes a look at specific aspects of using the heat desorption method to study mesoporous materials with a BETA zeolite as an example and presents the results of experimental research into the characteristics of the porous structure of hierarchically structured zeolite materials (specific surface area 180-380 m2/g, external surface area 120-200 m2/g, micropore volume 0.001-0.1 mL/g).
