Wetting phenomena at surfaces and interfaces is an important field of research with numerous commercial applications. As example, superhydrophobic surfaces are used as self-cleaning, antibiofilm forming and antimicrobial materials nowadays. Given the potential impact, creating surfaces with tailored wetting characteristics employing various fabrication techniques is of great interest. One very promising fabrication technique, for creating such materials is the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly. LbL is a versatile technique allowing incorporation of different types of drugs and materials and the ability to coat substrates of complex geometries.
This review summarises recent progress in preparation of Layer-by-layer constructs and a role of surface and wetting parameters in this technique. Effect of various physicochemical properties on LbL construct characteristics also was discussed.

加工参数在表面和润湿特性上的作用控制着逐层涂覆的纳米颗粒的行为
表面和界面处的润湿现象是具有众多商业应用的重要研究领域。例如,当今,超疏水表面被用作自清洁,抗生物膜形成和抗微生物材料。考虑到潜在的影响,使用各种制造技术来创建具有量身定制的润湿特性的表面引起了极大的兴趣。用于创建这种材料的一种非常有前途的制造技术是逐层(LbL)自组装。LbL是一种通用技术,允许掺入不同类型的药物和材料,并具有涂覆复杂几何形状的基材的能力。
这篇综述总结了在逐层构建体的制备以及表面和润湿参数在该技术中的作用方面的最新进展。还讨论了各种物理化学性质对LbL构建体特征的影响。
