Abstract: The post structure aligned carbon nanotube(ACNT) film was prepared by CVD. it was a ultra-hydrophobic film with a higher contact angle(166°) and lower sliding angle(less than 3°). The post structure ACNT film showed discrete pillar composed of carbon nanotubes, these pillar formed microstructure in the film, which affected both the contact angle and the sliding angle.

Key words: Aligned carbon nanotube film, Super-hydrophobicity, Wettability, Contact angle, Sliding angle
