Corrosion is an unavoidable issue that steel encounters during service; however, the generic methods employed for corrosion prevention often need high cost or preparation conditions. In this study, a facile chemical replacement deposition method was proposed to realize an anticorrosion superhydrophobic coating on a X80 steel surface. The growth mechanism of the rough structure and its impact on the wettability of the superhydrophobic coating were analyzed. The superhydrophobic coating, deposited for 50 s and modified for 30 min, achieved optimal electrochemical properties and a maximum water contact angle. The immersion test, in the saturated CO2 oilfield produced water, demonstrated the better corrosion resistance of superhydrophobic coating than X80 steel. Correspondingly, a kinetic corrosion model was established to analyze the anticorrosion mechanism. In summary, this method significantly improves the corrosion resistance of X80 steel and is attractive for other industrial fields.
