Abstract

In this work, the carbon steel matrix obtained a silane coupling agent (KH550) modified rough SiO2 coating, covering it by dip-coating method. The modified SiO2 (K-SiO2) coating on the carbon steel was coated with stearic acid (STA) and adjusted the proportion of SiO2 nanoparticles and KH550 to achieve the more perfect superhydrophobic sample. It turns out that SiO2 particles were evenly disturbuted and linked together by KH550 to form a stable structure. The K-SiO2 coating liquid was further added a modifier of STA to achieve low surface energy, and then developed a durable and corrosion resistant coating. The superhydrophobic coating liquid was coated on the carbon steel to obtain a multifunctional superhydrophobic coating (contact angle=163°, rolling angle=1.4°), having excellent self-cleaning, adhension, durability and corrosion resistance.
