In marine and industrial environments, salts and aggressive contaminants in water may cause corrosion and degradation, including acid corrosion and erosion. Super‐hydrophobic (SH) metal oxide films can keep surfaces dry by expelling water droplets. This inhibits corrosion. However, acid rain can dissolve the metal oxide films. Thus, it is necessary to protect SH films against acid erosion. In this...
A super-hydrophobic (SH) CuO surface was prepared on copper using chemical etching followed by fluorination treatment. The relationship between surface morphology and hydrophobicity was investigated. When the etching time varied from 5 to 120min, morphology changed from sparse sharp needles to dense sharp needles, and then to a stamen-like structure with flower-like clusters. All these surfaces were...
