We demonstrated a facile strategy of producing superhydrophobic octadecylamine (ODA)-functionalized graphite oxide (GO) films. ODA was chemically grafted on GO sheets by the nucleophilic substitution reaction of amine groups with epoxy groups. The long hydrocarbon chain in ODA reduces the surface energy of the GO sheet. The fabricated ODA-functionalized GO film exhibited a high contact angle (163.2 degrees) and low hysteresis (3.1 degrees). This method is promising in terms of low-cost and large-scale superhydrophobic coatings and has potential applications for surface modification of GO paper or other GO-based composite materials.
