The paper was devoted to the results of the study of methods to obtain superhydrophobic film based on the plasma polymerisation of hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) inside the plasma jet at atmospheric pressure. The 3D printing technology was intended for film deposition, which has the advantage of producing superhydrophobic surfaces over a wide range of scales. The effect of synthesis parameters on the hydrophobic properties of the film has been studied. The obtained superhydrophobic films demonstrated stability and resistance in chemical solutions, at high temperatures, under the influence of UV-irradiation and in various weather conditions. The results can be used in various fields, including automotive, construction, electronics, medicine and others, where surface protection against moisture, contamination and corrosion is required.
