Abstract: A method for creating oil-filled porous anodic oxide coatings for metallic surfaces is disclosed. The coating has anti-corrosion and omniphobic properties to resist both underwater and atmospheric conditions. To realize oil-impregnated three-dimensional bottle-shaped pores in the oxide layer in anodizing aluminum, the following steps may be taken. First, the target surface may be cleaned and electropolished. Then, a first anodizing step at a lower voltage is applied to create relatively small-diameter pores in the entrance (i.e., top) region of the oxide layer, followed by a second anodizing step at a higher voltage to subsequently create larger-diameter pores in the base (i.e., bottom) region of the oxide layer. Pore widening follows to enlarge the overall pore diameters. To fill the porous coating with an oil, a solvent exchange method may be utilized.
