This paper reported a simple method to fabricate superhydrophobic carbon steel surface. For this purpose, steel interfaces were coated by micro-nanostructured zinc.
These textured surfaces were chemically treated using methyltrichlorosilane. The resulting surfaces were characterised using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), their wetting properties were investigated by static contact angle measurement. It was found that the steel surface displayed superhydrophobicity with water contact angle of 152o ± 2o and low hysteresis.
