Description
Ice accretion severely compromises titanium alloy components in maritime environments. Conventional anti-icing coatings provide passive protection but often fail at the metal–coating interface under thermal and mechanical stresses, highlighting the need for in-situ engineered icephobic surfaces. Herein, we report an in-situ fabricated titanium surface integrating superhydrophobicity, photothermal conversion, and corrosion resistance through electrochemical treatment and vacuum annealing.
