Abstract
AbstractThe water adhesion of a superhydrophobic surface depends on its surface microstructure and chemical composition, which in turn affects its tribological properties. In this paper, a simple and environmentally friendly method was employed to fabricate superhydrophobic aluminium surfaces with different water adhesion. The results confirmed that the superhydrophobic aluminium surfaces with different water adhesion had different tribological properties under dry friction and water lubrication conditions. The sticky superhydrophobic sample with high adhesion had better wear resistance and lower friction coefficient than the slippery superhydrophobic one with very low adhesion. In addition, the related tribological properties were analyzed. This study is helpful to understand the tribological properties of superhydrophobic surfaces with different water adhesion more clearly, which is of great significance for their practical application.
