Abstract
"One of the plant types that is started to be used in technology recently is lotus. With understanding of nano structure of lotus leaf, it has been started to be used in building facing technology and other many areas. Due to roughness in nano dimension on lotus leaf surface, the leafs of plant never get wet. As water drops slip around leaf, they also take dust, mud or other dirt along. The reason of lotus leaf always seeming dry and clean is nano model on its surface. The properties of lotus leaf can be used in pavement technology. So pavement surfaces can always be dry and clean. It is known than snow and rain damage pavement surfaces. By applying lotus model on pavement surfaces, rigid pavement surface that are resistant to snow and rain, can be constructed. In this study the applicability of nano surface model of lotus leaf on pavement surfaces was examined."
