Temperature-dependent droplet impact dynamics of a water droplet on hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces: An experimental and predictive machine learning–based study

•Droplet impact on microstructured surfaces (hydrophobic/superhydrophobic) at different temperatures has been studied.•Effect of velocity, droplet diameter, temperature, surface wettability and roughness on impact dynamic are evaluated.•Using three machine-learning algorithms, an innovative method for predicting droplet impact dynamic is presented.
