Abstract
⺠The methods to characterize superhydrophobicity are critically reviewed ⺠We construct a superhydrophobicity index adapted to random-like roughnesses ⺠Using organic liquids solutions we analyze transition to superhydrophobicity ⺠Surface tension is not the relevant liquid-related measure for superhydrophobicity ⺠The work of wetting is linear with the superhydrophobic index
