Supporting Information

Supporting Information File 1: Single droplets of water on a thick sheet of nanofur produced with our roll-to-roll process. The droplets roll off easily at even the slightest tilt of the sample.

Supporting Information File 2: Drops of water on slanted sheets of nanofur. The left sample has longer hairs, the hairs on the right sample are shorter. The video shows that longer hairs tend to pin the drops and, also, that, once the drops roll, they do so much slower than on the samples with short hairs.

Supporting Information File 3: Droplets of oil water emulsion on a piece of nanofur showing oil–water separation.

Supporting Information File 4: A drop of colored oil (TOTAL Carter EP 320 mixed with a small amount of oil paint) is dispensed in a jar of water and then completely absorbed by a single nanopad.
