Preparation of superhydrophobic nanoplate iron oxide surface on a carbon steel for anti-wetting applications
A simple route to fabricate a surface layer comprising Fe3O4 nanoplates on a carbon steel has been successfully demonstrated using etching treatment followed by annealing in oxygen atmosphere. Different sizes of the Fe3O4 (311) exposed nanoplates can be fabricated by varying the annealing temperatur...
