AB  - The mechanical durability of superhydrophobic surfaces is of significance for 
      their practical applications. However, few reports about superhydrophobic coating 
      on certain substrates took into consideration both the mechanical stability of 
      the superhydrophobic coating and adhesion stability between the coating and the 
      substrate. Herein, we put forward a facile and efficient strategy to construct 
      robust superhydrophobic coatings by simply spray-coating a composite suspension 
      of SiO(2) nanoparticles, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and epoxy resin (EP) on 
      substrates pretreated with an EP base-coating. The as-obtained coating exhibited 
      excellent superhydrophobicity with water contact angle of 163 degrees  and sliding angle 
      of 3.5 degrees , which could endure UV irradiation of 180 h, immersion in acidic or basic 
      solutions for 168 h, and outdoor exposure for over 30 days. Notably, the coating 
      surface retained superhydrophobicity after being successively impacted with 
      faucet water for 1 h, impinged with 360 g sand grains, and abraded with sandpaper 
      of 120 grid under a load of 500 g for 5 m distance. The outstanding mechanical 
      stability was mainly attributed to the cross-linking of EP and the elastic nature 
      of PDMS which ensured strong cohesion inside the whole coating and to the 
      substrate. Additionally, the coating showed self-healing capacity against O(2) 
      plasma etching. The method is simple with the materials commercially available 
      and is expected to be widely applied in outdoor applications.
