Furthermore, flexible controllability of wettability has recently been required for industrial devices. Then, the etching process has some difficulties to control the change in wettability with the surface structure as it is designed. More flexible processes are required to manufacture the surface structures for control of wettability. Mechanical machining is an effective process to control the surface structures numerically. Miniaturization in the mechanical process has remarkably progressed with micro tools and high pre- cision motion controls. Then, the micro-scale cutting, forming and injection molding have recently been applied to the manufacture of the micro parts (Vollertsen et al., 2004; Qin, 2006). The size effect in micro forming was discussed to study material behavior in FE simulation (Chen and Tsai, 2006). Because the crystal grain size of the material is estimated as large relative to the processing size, the micro forming has been discussed in terms of the material science (Yeh et al., 2008). Some models on the crystal grain and the grain boundary were proposed to simulate the material behavior in FEM see front matter 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Although the structure is machined in a small area less than 0.1 mm square in the first process, the second process expands the structured area in a short time. The third process transfers the same surface structure as that of the first process onto the plastic plate at a high production rate. 2.2. Manufacturing of structured tool The micro-scale structure is machined on the tool made of tung- sten carbide, which is usually used for the tool insert in turning. The machining area is specified with grinding the tool, as shown in Fig. 2(a). The structure is controlled numerically by the focused Sha et al. discussed the effects of the process- parameters and the geometric factor on the surface quality micro-features in three different polymer materials (Sha et al., ).

According to Cassies model Cassie and Baxter, 1944), the change in contact angle on the surface is associated with the solid fraction, which the ratio of the liquid-solid contact areas on the structure ele- to the total area of the surface. Then, the effect of the surface on hydrophobicity is discussed with manufacturing the surfaces.

The functional requirements of the processes The structure elements should be micro-scale size to control functionalities. The structure should be machined in a wide area enough to control the surface function for the practical use. The structured surfaces should be manufactured at high pro- duction rates and low costs. Focused ion beam sputtering is normally effective in machining. However, it takes a long time to the structure in a large area. Then, the manufacturing cost with the production time. In this study, a manufacturing shown in Fig. 1 is presented to improve the production The micro-scale structures are machined in the following The micro-scale structure is fabricated on a tool by the focused ion beam sputtering.

Manufacturing of structured plate The structure on the tool is stamped to form the reverse struc- ture on a metal plate. A machine shown in Fig. 3(a) was developed for the incremental stamping. The machine controls three axes with the stepping motors. X- and Y- axis are controlled at a resolution of 25 nm. The resolution of Z-axis is 2.5 nm. The structured tool is mounted on the upper crossbeam. The structure is stamped with repeating the vertical motion of the machine table in Z-axis, as shown in Fig. 3(b). Two piezoelectric dynamometers are mounted under the table to detect the contact of the structured tool with the workpiece and control the stamping load. The structured area is controlled by motions in X- and Y-axis. 2672 T.

The stamping was repeated at a load of 12.5 N, which was determined as to form the dimples in the same depth as the pillar height on structured tool. Although the processing time is no more than min on the developed machine, the stamping rate would be on the higher performance machines. Fig. 4(b) compares profile of a formed dimple on the plate with that of a pillar the structured tool, where the profile of the structured tool is upside down. The flat surfaces of the structured tool and plate are the reference for comparison. The forming error in the of the dimple is more or less 1 H9262m because of elastic recovery the material behavior should be analyzed numerically for accurate stamping.

Plastic molding The structure is transferred onto polyethylene plates in plas- tic molding. The molding machine shown in Fig. 5(a), on which the samples were usually mounted for the observation with SEM, was used here. Plastic molding was conducted at 180 C at a pressure of 180 kPa for 40 min. The motion in the mold release should be controlled to prevent deterioration of the shape of the structure elements. A device shown in Fig. 5(b) was devel- oped to release the plastic plate from the mold in the straight movement. The plastic material was molded on the metal plate clamped by the supporting device. Then, the plastic plate was released from the metal plate with the screw motion on the release device. The inner side of the release device worked as a motion guide. In the operation, the molding time was restricted by the specification of the molding machine. The production rate could be improved remarkably on the conventional mold injection machines. T.

The process with a tool shown in Fig. 7 is effective in the accurate stamping and flexibility for the structure design. 3. Evaluation of wettability 3.1. Hydrophobic surface with surface topography Fig. 9(a) shows a water droplet on a flat surface of a polyethy- lene plate. Wettability is associated with contact angle, the angle between vaporliquid and liquidsolid boundaries of a liquid droplet. The contact angle is larger than 90 on hydrophobic sur- face and increases with hydrophobicity. It is well known the contact angle depends on the surface roughness. The contact angle on the rough surface is larger than that of the flat surface for hydrophobic material. Wenzel and Cassie presented the models with the sur- face structures (Wenzel, 1936; Cassie and Baxter, 1944). According to Cassies model, the liquid phase is supported by the structure ele- ments and the vapor phase penetrates under the liquid meniscus, pitch: (a) full pitch; (b) half pitch; (c) 1/4 pitch.

Consecutive control of structures: (a) structured tool; (b) shown in Fig. 9(b). As a consequence, the contact angle increases the structured surface. In Cassies model, the apparent contact DC2 r C is given by: DC2 C r = RS s cos DC2 e + RS s 1 (1) DC2 e is the contact angle on the flat surface; and RS s is the fraction of the structured surface. The contact angle DC2 e of the plate is 96 , as shown in Fig. 9(a).

Hydrophobicity on structured surface The contact angles were measured with changing the surface structure and were compared with Cassies model. Here, 8 H9262m square pillars were aligned with changing the distance between pillars. The height of pillars was designed to be 10 H9262m so that the vapor phase exists under the liquid meniscus, which does not con- tact the bottom of the structure. The solid fraction of the square pillars in the structure is: RS s = parenleftBig a d parenrightBig 2 (2) where a is the length of a side of the square pillar and d is the pitch of the pillars. 2676 T.

The contact angle is more than 150 at a solid fraction of 0.07 on the structured surface, where the pillars are aligned at a pitch of 30 H9262m.
