In this paper, we first fabricate a 3D porous FZCF (FAS-modified ZnO-grown copper foam) with robust superhydrophobicity in air and superoleophilicity under water and the repeatable superwettability, and then mainly explore and analyze its corrosion resistance. The superhydrophobic-superoleophilic FZ...
