摘要：Fouling causes serious problems in daily lives and mass industrial processes. Modern industry has made lots of artificial anti-fouling surfaces especially bio-inspired surfaces with some effective strategies to tackle the fouling issue. These surfaces inspired by natural creatures like lotus and sharks show both highefficiency and eco-friendly properties. This review discusses the model behind the anti-fouling properties, the mechanism of various types of fouling, and the strategy of both natural and bio-inspired surfaces. Also, the possibility of building a wide-range anti-fouling and durable surface is discussed.
