This study aims to investigate the impact of laser parameters, including laser power, laser frequency, laser scan speed, and hatches line distance, on Ti6Al4V to create superhydrophobic surfaces. Surface profile and roughness play vital roles in achieving superhydrophobicity, and existing laser surf...
