A simple and practical spray method is employed to prepare a PVDF/PFOTES-SiO2 superhydrophobic composite coating on the AZ31B Mg alloy substrate. The morphology, composition, and water contact angle (CA) were measured by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and contact angle measuring instrument. Hydrophilic nano-SiO2 is modified by PFOTES to obtain hydrophobicity. The influence of the mass of PFOTES-SiO2 to PVDF on the hydrophobic properties was studied. The wear resistance and stability of the composite coating have been investigated by immersion test, cross-cut adhesion test and friction test. Additionally, the corrosion resistance was measured by electrochemical workstation and salt spray corrosion test. The CA of PVDF/PFOTES-SiO2 coating is 161.3° and the sliding angle (SAs) is less than 2°. After 10× the sandpaper friction test, the superhydrophobic contact angle of the coating remained above 155°, and the sliding angle was less than 5°, which indicated that the prepared coating is a strong superhydrophobic coating with good wear resistance. The results of the electrochemical tests show that the superhydrophobic coating improved the anti-corrosion performance of Mg alloy, and the water contact angle is greater than 150° after 168 h salt spray corrosion test. Due to its excellent superhydrophobicity, wear resistance and anti-corrosion properties, the robust PVDF/PFOTES-SiO2 coating is considered to have great potential for future applications in the automotive and marine industries.

Composite Electrodeposition

A superhydrophobic surface with low adhesion and good wear resistance was fabricated on Ti6Al4V substrates via TiO2/Ni composite electrodeposition, and subsequently modified with a fluoroalkylsilane (FAS) film. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and optical contact angle measurements were used to characterize the surface morphologies, chemical compositions, and surface wettability. The superhydrophobicity of the as-prepared surface results from the fabrication of a hierarchical structure and the assembly of low-surface energy fluorinated components. The as-prepared surface had a water contact angle as high as 162.6° and a sliding angle close to 1.8°. Scratch and abrasion tests showed that the superhydrophobic coating provided a superior wear resistance and stable mechanical abrasion protection. In addition, the influence of processing conditions, such as working voltage, deposited time, pH value, and TiO2 concentration, was also investigated.

Corrosion prevention and infrared (IR) stealth are conflicting goals. While graphene nanosheets (GN) provide an excellent physical barrier against corrosive agent diffusion, thus lowering the permeability of anti-corrosion coatings, they have the side-effect of decreasing IR stealth. In this work, the anti-corrosion properties of 100-μm-thick composite epoxy coatings with various concentrations (0.01–1 wt.%) of GN fillers thermally reduced at different temperatures (300 °C, 700 °C, 1100 °C) are first compared. The performance was characterized by potentiodynamic polarization scanning, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, water contact angle and salt spray tests. The corrosion resistance for coatings was found to be optimum at a very low filler concentration (0.05 wt.%). The corrosion current density was 4.57 × 10−11 A/cm2 for GN reduced at 1100 °C, showing no degradation after 500 h of salt-spray testing: a significant improvement over the anti-corrosion behavior of epoxy coatings. Further, to suppress the high IR thermal signature of GN and epoxy, Al was added to the optimized composite at different concentrations. The increased IR emissivity due to GN was not only eliminated but was in fact reduced relative to the pure epoxy. These optimized coatings of Al-GN-epoxy not only exhibited greatly reduced IR emissivity but also showed no sign of corrosion after 500 h of salt spray test.

Composite superhydrophobic coating built with film former and filler is attracting much attention for its facile and convenient fabrication, but significant limitations and disadvantages still remain. In this paper, a composite superhydrophobic coating is introduced which can be cured at room temperature and made by dispersing modified silica nanoparticles with 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane in fluorosilicone resin. Silica content and dispersion time showed obvious influences on the morphology and topography of composite coating by reuniting dispersed nanoparticles to form peaks on the surface. Excessively large distances between these peaks would decrease water contact angle value. Increasing slope of peaks, appropriate distance between peaks and decreasing diameter size of peaks would diminish sliding angle value. Formation mechanism of the composite coating based on fluorosilicone resin and modified nanoparticles was explained using interpenetrating polymer model.

In the present study, a scalable-manufactured and environmental-friendly method was proposed to fabricate the superhydrophobic coating on titanium alloy. The hierarchical binary surface structures were obtained by hydrothermal treatment of titanium alloy with oxalic acid and sodium hydroxide solutions successively. The hierarchical structure surfaces after fluoroalkyl-silane modification possessed a maximum contact angle of 158.7° and a sliding angle of 4.3°. The low contact angle hysteresis surface can lead to efficient self-cleaning performance, which was confirmed by the bounce and roll off of water droplet on the surface. Furthermore, the anticorrosion behaviors of the superhydrophobic coating in 3.5[Formula: see text]wt.% NaCl solution was evaluated by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). It was found that the superhydrophobic coating can maintain its superhydrophobic state (150°) within 48 h, thereby effectively preventing the corrosive medium from penetrating into the coating. This simple yet fast anti-corrosion/self-cleaning superhydrophobic coating manufacturing strategy will enlighten its potential application in the engineering fields.

A simple, cheap and environmental double thin super-hydrophobic composite film was prepared on the surface of tinplate by a simple casting method. The contact angle and sliding angle were measured by an optical contact angle meter. And the major factors that influenced the super-hydrophobic effect of the composite film were studied in our work. The results showed that when the melting temperature was 120°C, the weight radio of PP and PP-g-MAH was 1:4, the drying time was 24h, the dosage of ethanol was 0.4ml, the composite film showed a satisfactory super-hydrophobicity and its water contact angles reached a maximum value of 156.6° while the sliding angle reached a minimum value of 2°. Because of anti-oxidation, moisture-proof and anticorrosion performance of super-hydrophobic tinplate, it has potential practical applications in packaging material engineering.

A facile method is introduced for production of micro-nanostructured silicone rubber surfaces by means of direct replication using a compression molding system. The fabricated samples possessing surface roughness display water contact angle of more than 160o and contact angle hysteresis (CAH) and sliding angle of less than 5o. Such low surface wettability of silicone specimens verifies the induced superhydrophobic property. Chemically etched aluminum surfaces could work excellently as templates whose patterns were replicated on the rubber surfaces successfully. Various etching conditions were examined. Surface characterization techniques revealed the presence of micro-nanostructures on the produced silicone surfaces.

Highly Hydrophobic

A stable self-cleaning superhydrophobic modified fluorinated graphene surface with micro/nanostructure was successfully fabricated on copper substrates via drop coating process. Irregularly stacked island-like multilayered fluorinated graphene nanoflakes comprised the microstructure. The fabricated films exhibited outstanding superhydrophobic property with a water contact angle 167° and water sliding angle lower than 4°. The developed superhydrophobic surface showed excellent corrosion resistance with insignificant decrease of water contact angle 166° in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. This stable highly hydrophobic performance of the fluorinated graphene films could be useful in self-cleaning, antifogging, corrosion resistive coatings and microfluidic devices.
