Graphene-coated meshes for electroactive flow control devices utilizing two antagonistic functions of repellency and permeability

The wettability properties of graphene hold promise for the realisation of flow control devices. Here, the authors demonstrate that the degree of water penetration through a nickel mesh coated with graphene can be controlled electrically, enabling dynamic locomotion of water droplets.
