Abstract
Superhydrophobic coatings have attracted substantial attention owing to their potential application in various industries. Conventional textiles used in daily life are prone to staining with water and household liquids, necessitating the development of water-repellent and stain-resistant coatings. In this study, we fabricated a highly water-repellent superhydrophobic PET fabric by using an eco-friendly water-based coating process. Fluorine-free octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) solutions with various wt.% of hollow silica (HS) nanoparticles were used to produce a superhydrophobic surface via a facile dip coating method. Our findings revealed that the incorporation of HS nanoparticles substantially increased the water contact angle, with higher concentrations resulting in enhanced water repellency and increased surface roughness. The treated fabrics had a remarkable water contact angle of 152.4° ± 0.8°, demonstrating their superhydrophobic fiber surface. In addition, the durability of these superhydrophobic properties was investigated via a laundry procedure, which showed that the fabrics maintained their water repellency even after 20 laundering cycles. EDX and XRD analyses confirmed that the morphological evaluations did not reveal any substantial structural alterations. Significantly, the fibers maintained their strength and durability throughout the testing, enduring only minor hollow SiO2 nanoparticle loss. This eco-friendly and cost-effective method holds great potential for application in apparel and other industries, offering an effective solution to resist water stains and improve performance in various contexts.

Abstract
Superhydrophobic surfaces can be derived from roughening hydrophobic materials. However, the superhydrophobic surfaces with various micro/nano morphologies present variations of chemical and mechanical durability, which limits their practical applications. Very little actually is known about comparing durability and corrosion resistance of concave and convex superhydrophobic surface structures systematically. In this paper, two kinds of superhydrophobic AlNiTi amorphous coatings with concave and convex surfaces were obtained by chemical etching and hydrothermal methods, respectively. Benefiting from nanoscale sheet structure, the convex superhydrophobic coating displays higher water-repellence (contact angle = 157.6°), better self-cleaning performance and corrosion resistance. The corrosion current density of the convex superhydrophobic surface is approximately one order of magnitude smaller than the concave superhydrophobic surface. Besides, the long-term chemical stability and mechanical durability of both superhydrophobic surfaces were also investigated. The formation and damage mechanisms of these two kinds of superhydrophobic surfaces were proposed. It is hoped that these investigations could provide clear guidance for the real-world applications of superhydrophobic amorphous coatings.

A General Strategy towards Superhydrophobic Self-Cleaning and Anti-Corrosion Metallic Surfaces: An Example with Aluminum Alloy. COATINGS 2021.

Abstract
Corrosion and contamination of metallic structures can cause loss of their functionality as well as aesthetic values. In this study, we describe a general strategy to prepare superhydrophobic self-cleaning and anti-corrosion surfaces for metallic structures. As a specific example, a superhydrophobic coating (SHC) on aluminum alloy was prepared by a simple etching combined with the decoration of a low-surface-energy material. The optimal SHC has a water contact angle (CA) at ~157.4° and a sliding angle (SA) of ~8.3° due to the synergy of binary hierarchical structures and chemical modification. The SHC showed low adhesion to dry contaminants and a series of liquids, displaying a good self-cleaning effect. The SHC maintained superhydrophobicity after exposure to air and humid condition at 60 °C for 7 days. In addition, the electrochemical measurements reveal that the anti-corrosion performance was enhanced by reducing the corrosion current density (Jcorr) by 1 order of magnitude and increasing the corrosion potential (Ecorr) by 0.527 V as compared to the bare Al alloy substrate after immersion for 168 h.

In this investigation, we demonstrated a controlled electrodeposition method by varying the current density to generate hierarchical structures of zinc (Zn) on a carbon steel surface, which serves as a hydrophobic and anticorrosion coating when further modified by stearic acid to form a covalently bonded layer that offers low surface energy.

Abstract
Recently, carbon allotropes were shown to play a key role in energy harvesting and as hydrophobic coatings on metal alloys. We have designed octylamine-functionalized graphene oxide materials for energy harvesting and as an anti-corrosion coating for metal alloy protection in a 3.5% NaCl medium. The material has been characterized by different techniques to confirm the structure and composition of the modified graphene oxide sheet: FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, Raman spectroscopy, FESEM and TEM. The electrochemical stability and corrosion inhibition efficiency were studied by electrochemical methods. The electrochemical stability increased with an increase in the applied voltage up to 500 mV, and the corrosion inhibition efficiency was shown to be 73%. The coating stability studies showed a long stability time in the corrosion medium. Octylamine-functionalized graphene oxide chemisorbed onto a Mg alloy surface by non-bonding electron.![]()

Abstract
A new class of superhydrophobic surface based on multiple hybrid coatings is proposed and prepared to improve mechanical and reproduction stability. It does not only show a large water contact angle (ca. 174.5°) but also a slight decrease (ca. 6.4%) of water contact angle after 100 mechanical abrasion cycles. Furthermore, the water contact angle changes slightly (relative standard deviation, 0.14%) for the three superhydrophobic surfaces prepared with the same procedure. The application of superhydrophobic multiple hybrid coatings in corrosion protection is further investigated by the Tafel polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The superhydrophobic multiple hybrid coatings showed lower corrosion current (1.4 × 10-11 A/cm2), lower corrosion rate (ca. 1.6 × 10-7 mm/year), and larger polarization resistance (7.9 × 104 MΩ cm2) in 3.5 wt % NaCl aqueous solution compared to other superhydrophobic coatings reported in previous works. This work not only confirms the formation of robust superhydrophobic surface for real application in corrosion protection but also provides a new model of superhydrophobic surface based on multiple hybrid coatings with high mechanical, chemical, and reproduction stability for various applications.
