Abstract

In the paper, we prepared superhydrophobic surfaces on copper foils via a facile solution-immersing method. The influence of experiment conditions, such as solution concentration, immersing time and temperature, on the surface structure is investigated in detail. When the concentration of stearic acid-ethanol solution, the immersing time and the temperature are 2 g/L, 120 min and 40°,respectively, the resulting copper surface possesses great superhydrophobicity with a water contact angle of up to 159° and a sliding angle of only 3°.
