A facile and novel method was developed to fabricate rough Co3O4 surface with hierarchical micro-and nanostructures by the combination of simple solid state reactions and coating process. After modi. cation with stearic acid, a superhydrophobic surface with water contact angle of 155 +/- 1.8 degrees and sliding angle of 28 was obtained. The superhydrophobic Co3O4 surface remained superhydrophobic property in a wide pH range from 3 to 14. The superhydrophobic Co3O4 surface also showed excellent self-cleaning property and high stability in ambient environments. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
