Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an ultraphobic surface on aluminium as the supporting material and to the resulting surface and its use. According to said method, the surface of an aluminium support is anodized, especially by anodic oxidation, and/or electrochemically pickled in an acid solution with an alternating voltage, treated in hot water or water vapor at a temperature of 50 to 100° C., optionally coated with an adhesion promoter layer and then provided with a hydrophobic or especially oleophobic coating.

Abstract: The present invention relates to blocked fluorine-containing polyisocyanates which have a fluorine content, calculated as F=19, of 1.0 to 20.0 wt. %, preferably 4.0 to 10.0 wt. %, and are suitable for preparing stoving coatings having a water- and soil-repellent surface, wherein the fluorine-containing polyisocyanates are based on the reaction product of aliphatic polyisocyanates or polyisocyanate mixtures having an NCO content of 10 to 25 wt. % and a functionality of at least 2.5 with monofunctional isocyanate blocking agents and a fluorinated monoalcohols wherein i) 75 to 95 equivalent-% of the isocyanate groups are reacted with isocyanate blocking agents, ii) 5 to 25 equivalent-% of the isocyanate groups are reacted with fluorinated monoalcohols and iii) the equivalents of i) and ii) add up to 100%.
