Abstract

This study investigates fabrication of superhydrophobic coating on stainless steel using dimethylsiloxane modified silica particles using electrophoretic deposition. Results show that a uniform surface coating with thickness of around 2~3μm as well as the presence of low surface energy methyl group resulted to a superhydrophobic surface with a contact angle of 163~165^o.
