Superamphiphobic, (quasi‐)ordered plasma‐textured surfaces , coated with a perfluorinated monolayer, exhibit extreme resistance against drop‐pinning for both water‐like and low‐surface‐tension mixtures (36 mN m −1 ). The highest values reported here are 36 atm for a water‐like mixture, 5 times higher than previously reported in the literature, and 7 atm for a low‐surface‐tension mixture, the highest ever reported value for lotus‐leaf‐inspired surfaces.
