A novel superhydrophobic biodegradable coating with micro‐/nanometer rough structure , fabricated by co‐electrospraying poly( L ‐lactide) (PLLA) and modified silica nanoparticles (MSNs), exhibits good anti‐adhesion behavior towards bacteria and cells in the initial culturing phase, which makes it a promising technology for preparing medical device coatings.
