More Details: Nickel-titanium (NiTi) is the most ordinarily used shape memory alloy (SMAs), which has important implications in aerospace, medical devices and so on. However, NiTi parts were limited in their application scope and ability due to the difficulty of processing. Until the appearance of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology, it overcame NiTi alloy preparation's multiple challenges and became the preferred method to fabricate NiTi alloy. Nevertheless, the NiTi parts fabricated by LPBF that have a great shortage still exist in corrosion resistance. Therefore, in this paper, a series of micro-nano structures with different characteristics were constructed in LPBF-NiTi by orthogonal experiment for the first time, which wants to explore the degree of influence of various parameters on the wettability of samples. After variance analysis, the nanolaser processing parameters which are most suitable for constructing lotus leaf structures on NiTi alloy surfaces are obtained. The surface morphology and composition were studied by SEM, XRD, EDS, and XPS, respectively. Finally, the corrosion resistance of samples was tested by electrochemical analysis. The results show that the laser power during processing has the greatest influence on the surface morphology of LPBF-NiTi alloy. And the wettability is affected by surface morphology and –CF/-CF2 adsorption. Furthermore, we compared the corrosion resistance of the superhydrophobic samples which was obtained based on the variance analysis with that of the substrate in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. The result shows that the corrosion resistance and corrosion stability of superhydrophobic samples are brilliantly increased compared with the substrate.
