摘要：Superhydrophobic surfaces with tunable water adhesion and adjustable wettability have the capacity to manipulate water droplets under complicated conditions and, therefore, have great prospects in various domains. Hence, developing a facile method to prepare highly stable superhydrophobic surfaces with tunable water adhesion and adjustable wettability is of great importance. Herein, we prepare the superhydrophobic aluminum surface by combining laser etching and stearic acid modification. The variations of water contact angle, water sliding angle and water adhesive force with temperature of the prepared surface are characterized during the adhesion tuning process to investigate its temperature-responsive characteristics. A low/high adhesion switching of water on the prepared surface is subsequently achieved under alternating temperature. In addition, a facile approach is designed to achieve the superwettability switching process (from superhydrophobic state to superhydrophilic state) on the prepared surface. The prepared superhydrophobic surface displays excellent recoverability, stability and repeatability in the adhesion switching process and the superwettability switching process, even after being cycled for 10 times.
