“…Up to now, numerous methods of constructing superhydrophobic surface on magnesium alloys have been proposed, such as electrodeposition, [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] micro-arc oxidation, [13][14][15] chemical conversion treatment, [2,16] hydrothermal method, [17][18][19][20][21][22] immersion method, [23,24] laser ablation, [25] electroless plating, [26] dip coating, [27] spray coating, [28,29] et al Among these various methods, spray-coating technique is a fast, facile method to fabricate coatings on a large-scale, which has been widely used in industry for coating complex shapes on different substrates. [28,29] Organosiloxane is a promising candidate for the preparation of wear-resistant superhydrophobic materials due to its polymerization to enhance the mechanical durability and strong adhesion to the substrate. 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) is one kind of organoalkoxysilane with an epoxy functional group, extensively employed in hybrid sol-gel coatings.…”
