Abstract

In this work, we investigate the wettability of ZrO2 nanotubes (ZrNT) synthesized via electrochemical anodization of Zirconium. The ZrNT surface shows superhydrophilic behavior while the octadecylphosphonic acid (C18H37PO(OH)2) modified surface shows superhydrophobic behavior. We demonstrate that the wetting properties are independent of ZrO2 nanotube geometry and length.
