The present invention provides a superhydrophobic fiber and a mat thereof, a production method thereof, and a utilization method thereof. Fibers comprising copolymers and exhibit water contact angles greater than 150 ° and water contact angle hysteresis less than 15 °, and mats of the fibers, and methods of making them are provided. The method includes electrospinning a solution that includes a silicon structure and a copolymer that includes a component having a surface energy of less than 1 mJ / m 2 . [Selection] Figure 8 |
