Armor-Encapsulated Superhydrophobic Surface with Exceptional Robust Performance
摘要
This study presents the fabrication of armored superhydrophobic surfaces using nanosecond laser technology, which was employed to create hybrid microstructures composed of interconnected frames and micro-protrusions. Mechanical durability was assessed through water jet and impact tests. The results indicated that the hydrophobic property remained stable after 40 impact cycles. Thermal stability was also demonstrated, with the samples maintaining superhydrophobicity after prolonged exposure to high temperatures (100 °C). The results highlight the potential of the nanosecond laser-based fabrication method for producing durable, thermally stable superhydrophobic materials for a range of practical applications.
