Abstract

Abstract

As an efficient passive anti-icing method, the superhydrophobic surface can reduce icing process on metals in low temperatures. However, the usual organic low-surface-energy decorations are often prone to age especially in harsh environments, leading to a decrease or complete failure of the anti-icing performance. Here, we adopt a method of femtosecond laser microstructuring to achieve inorganic superhydrophobic aluminum alloys through simultaneously modifying the surface profile and compositions. The obtained bionic anthill tribe structure with the low thermal conductivity, exhibits the superior delayed freezing time (803.3 s) and the low ice adhesion (16 μN) in comparison to the fluorosilane modified and bare Al surfaces. Moreover, such an inherently superhydrophobic metal surface also shows the exceptional environmental durability in anti-icing performance, which confirms the effectiveness of our superhydrophobic surface without the need for organic coatings.
