Summary:This work focuses on obtaining superhydrophobic surfaces on an aluminium-magnesium substrate for industrial use in a simple and relatively inexpensive way. For this purpose, texturing techniques have been used by sanding with paper, sandblasting with abrasives and hydrophobization by cathodic electrodeposition and immersion in cerium saline solutions. For the determination of superhydrofobicity, the sliding angle, advance and receding angle, number of bounces and determination of surface morphology have been measured. Both cathodic electrodeposition and immersion techniques have been used to obtain superhydrofobicity on the surface. Sliding angles up to 0 ° have been obtained and advancing angles higher than 150 °.
