Abstract
A new efficient method for the fabrication of corrosion-resistant composite superhydrophobic coatings on aluminum and its alloys is presented. The laser micro- and nanotexturing of the surface combined with the deposition of a hydrophobic agent makes it possible to obtain superhydrophobic coatings with unique properties on aluminum materials. The complex studies by electrochemical methods and wettability analysis showed that the proposed type of coatings is characterized by very high resistance to corrosion, including pitting resistance, and by the durability of the superhydrophobic state upon prolonged contact with aqueous chloride-containing media.
