Development of water-repellent stainless steel (sus 316l) surface by stepwise anodizing technique

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a technology for developing a water-repellent stainless steel (SUS 316L) surface for improving a corrosion inhibition (corrosion resistance) efficiency. According to the method for forming a hydrophobic and corrosion resistant oxide film on a stainless steel surface according to the present disclosure, uniform porous oxide film may be formed without a pre-patterning process for forming uniform porous oxide films of the related art to achieve excellent hydrophobicity and corrosion resistance, thereby being applied to medical devices, marine transportation vehicles, land transportation vehicles, air transportation vehicles, water and sewage pipes, water and sewage filters, and the like, including stainless steel and also be useful as a machine learning database for developing stainless steel surface treatment technology.
