Drag reduction of stable biomimetic superhydrophobic steel surface by acid etching under an oxygen-sufficient environment

Superhydrophobic surfaces have shown utility applications in drag reduction field. A novel method based on simulation analysis and test experiments is proposed to fabricate a superhydrophobic surface with 3D flower-like micro and nano-structures on a steel ball under an O _2 rich environment. The su...
