Preparation and characterization of superhydrophobic surfaces based on hexamethyldisilazane-modified nanoporous alumina

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Superhydrophobic nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (alumina) surfaces were prepared using treatment with vapor-phase hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS). Nanoporous alumina substrates were first made using a two-step anodization process. Subsequently, a repeated modificat...
