This disclosure describes the preparation of durable superhydrophobic and superoleophobic surfaces by forming or molding superhydrophobic particles into plastics, metals, and other materials. The molding and forming process can also impart a texture or pattern into the formed or molded surface as desired to increase the durability of superhydrophobic and/or superoleophobic effect.
