Abstract
A cost-effective method of forming a hydrophobic coating on a substrate and coated substrates are disclosed. Specifically, the method comprises applying amorphous powders of an alloy to the substrate through a cold spray process. Also provided is a novel type of hydrophobic coating made of metallic glasses or amorphous alloys. The hydrophobic coatings offer advantages such as, low cost, low maintenance, and high corrosion resistance.
