Abstract
In this paper, a facile method based on the combination of chemical-etching and chemical vapour deposition is developed for the fabrication of superhydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane-derived film on aluminium substrate. It is revealed that the fabricated superhydrophobic aluminium has a static water contact angle as high as 158.7°, a good self-cleaning property and a persistent high corrosion resistance to 3.5 wt.% NaCl solutions. The presented method provides a scalable route to endow metals and alloys with multiple functions, making them suitable for the applications that need waterproof, dustproof and corrosion resistance properties.
