Owens–Wendt Method for Comparing the UV Stability of Spontaneous Liquid-Repellency with Wet Chemical Treatment of Laser-Textured Stainless Steel

The liquid-repellent properties of AISI 304 stainless steel surfaces textured with a femtosecond laser were studied, both after spontaneous hydrophobization and when treated with stearic acid and octyltrimethoxysilane. Surface topography has been shown to play a critical role in determining these pr...
