Advances in Antifouling Properties of Superhydrophobic Coatings
[Purposes]The research progress of superhydrophobic coatings at home and abroad is summa-rized and sorted out,and various surface treatment methods are used to provide reference and reference for all kinds of metals in the construction of superhydrophobic coatings and the improvement of antifoul-ing performance.[Methods]This paper,searched relevant literature on superhydrophobic coatings for various metals at home and abroad in recent years,and organized and summarized their research prog-ress in the field of antifouling performance,and reviewed the preparation methods of superhydrophobic coatings for various metals as well as the effects of antifouling performance.[Findings]Superhydropho-bic coatings,characterized by self-cleaning,durability and stability,are widely used in the fields of oil-water separation,antifouling and corrosion prevention.Superhydrophobic antifouling coatings combine low surface energy and microstructure,which is a new trend in antifouling coatings.[Conclusions]The superhydrophobic coatings prepared from different kinds of metals and their alloys as well as different methods have good performance in terms of antifouling performance,which is of great significance for the development and research of superhydrophobic coatings in the future.
