    In recent years, the anti-icing properties of superhydrophobic surfaces attract tremendous attention of researchers. However, the effect of surface microstructures and wettabilities on their anti-icing properties is still controversial. Different microstructures on copper surface are fabricated by a femtosecond laser. After surface chemical modification, these surfaces show superhydrophobicity combined with different adhesion to water. Their anti-icing properties are studied. The result shows that all these superhydrophobic surfaces delay the ice formation in low temperatures (-5 ℃,-10 ℃). In addition, the superhydrophobic surface adhesion to water affects the antiicing property. Low superhydrophobic surface adhesion to water benefits their anti-icing property.
