Gas bubbles in aqueous media are common and inevitable in, for example, agriculture and industrial processes. The behaviors of gas bubbles on solid interfaces, including generation, growth, coalescence, release, transport, and collection, are crucial to gas-bubble-related applications, which are always determined by gas-bubble wettability on solid interfaces. Here, the recent progress regarding the study of interfaces with gas-bubble superwettability in aqueous media, i.e., superaerophilicity and superaerophobicity, is summarized. Some examples illustrate how to design microstructures and chemical compositions to achieve reliable and effective manipulation of gas-bubble wettability on artificial interfaces. These designed interfaces exhibit excellent performance in gas-evolution reactions, gas-adsorption reactions, and directional gas-bubble transportation. Moreover, progress in the theoretical investigation of gas-bubble superwettability is reported. Lastly, some challenges are presented, such as the reliable manipulation of gas-bubble wettability and the establishment of mature theory for exactly and systematically explaining gas-bubble wetting phenomena.
