Superhydrophobic polyolefin surfaces were prepared by simultaneous micro- and nanostructuring. Electropolished aluminum foil was microstructured with a micro working robot and then anodized in polyprotic acid. The surface microstructure can be tailored by adjusting the settings of the micro working robot and the nanostructure by adjusting the parameters of the anodization procedure. Surface structuring was done by injection molding where a microstructured anodized aluminum oxide mold insert was used to pattern the surfaces. Structuring had a marked effect on the contact angle between the injection-molded polyolefins and water. When the optimized microstructure was covered with nanostructure, the static contact angle between polypropylene and water obtained a value of about 165 degrees and the sliding angle decreased to about 2.5 degrees. The superhydrophobic state was achieved.
