Abstract:Research efforts have intensified
on developing superhydrophobic
surfaces on concrete structures to limit the damage caused by the
natural porosity and hydrophilicity of cementitious materials. However,
the feasibility idea is impeded by the complex preparation process
and weak adhesion/stability performance. Therefore, superhydrophobic
coatings were rapidly prepared on mortar surfaces by a straightforward
and effective one-step method using zinc oxide (ZnO) modified with
stearic acid and epoxy resin. The micr… Show more
