Superhydrophobic surface on steel substrate and its anti-icing property in condensing conditions

Super-Amphiphobic Coating System Incorporating Functionalized Nano-Al2O3 in Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) with Enhanced Corrosion Resistance

“…Superhydrophobic coating has garnered much interest due to its wide applications in science and engineering. Some of the recent applications of superhydrophobic coating are self-cleaning, anti-icing, and anti-corrosion have been reported in recent years [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Having a dual property surface called superamphiphobic further enhances the property of the coating.…”

One‐Stage Method for Fabricating Superhydrophobic Stainless Steel Surface and Its Anti‐Corrosion Performance

“…Based on the preparation technologies, various methods were applied to fabricate superhydrophobic steel surfaces, such as electrodeposition, Layer by Layer deposition, electro‐less galvanic deposition, nanocasting technique, sol–gel, and chemical etching . Various materials, which act as an anti‐corrosion layer, were coated or deposited on steel surfaces, such as TiO 2 , SiO 2 , CeO 2 , SiC, graphene oxide, (GO) and silanes . However, developing new methods with highly efficient, low‐cost, large‐scale, and easy‐to‐prepare remain difficult.…”

Comprehensively durable superhydrophobic metallic hierarchical surfaces via tunable micro-cone design to protect functional nanostructures

“…Superhydrophobic surfaces have gained increasing attention owing to their wide range of potential applications in the areas of self-cleaning, [1][2][3] anti-icing, [4][5][6] anticorrosion, [7][8][9][10][11] oil-water separation, 12,13 etc. However, one problem needs thorough resolution before superhydrophobic surfaces are widely employed in industry or daily life, namely, durability.…”
