Abstract

A study about superhydrophobic surface started from the analysis of lotus leaf, and superhydrophobic surface fabrication methods have been researched. These methods cannot be used on various metals because the fabrication methods have complex and material-selective processes. In this work, we report a simple fabrication method using abrasive blasting and a self-assembled monolayer coating to produce a superhydrophobic surface. Abrasive blasting was used to create microstructures on metal surfaces. Random peak and valley microstructures were created after abrasive blasting, and a surface profile was measured to analyze the relationship between blasting pressure and a roughness parameter. A hydrophobic material coating was performed by a self-assembled monolayer method. Six kinds of metal surfaces displayed superhydrophobic properties. This utilitarian method could be applied to diverse applications.
