Facile fabrication of amphiphobic surfaces on copper substrates with a mixed modified solution.

ABSTRACT: Fabricating amphiphobic surfaces is often complex, difficult to control, and time-consuming, making the fabrication process very difficult. Herein, a facile and time-saving modification method using a mixed modified solution of stearic acid and perfluorooctanoic acid was initially proposed, which played a key role in the achievement of the superhydrophobicity and highly oleophobicity. The effects of reaction time on surface morphology and wettability as well as the content of perfluorooctanoic acid in the mixed modified solution on wettability were investigated to determine the optimal experiment parameters that maximized the amphiphobicity of the surfaces. The as-fabricated amphiphobic surfaces displayed high oil contact angles of 133.5°, higher water contact angles of 156.8°, ultra-low w
