Zusammenfassung:The paper discusses the possibility of obtaining a uniformly inhomogeneous surface of aluminum alloy 6063 as a result of alkaline etching and laser processing. Further surface treatment with ethanol solutions of octadecylphosphonic (ODPA) and stearic acids leads to its superhydrophobization (SHP). The study of the degradation kinetics of SHP coatings in water and under conditions of neutral salt spray showed the high stability of ODPA films obtained on a laser-textured surface with an irregularities height of 9.82 μm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed that ODPA is chemisorbed on the alloy surface. High corrosion resistance of the surface with superhydrophobic layers confirmed by polarization measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and corrosion tests.
