Although　superhydrophobic　surfaces　have　shown　great　potential　in　oil-water　separationanti-icing　and　self-cleaningthe　practical　applications　were　often　limited　by　their　brittle　durability.　The　fragility　of　superhydrophobic　surface　structure　is　the　main　reason　that　hinders　its　practical　application.　Due　to　the　further　study　of　superhydrophobic　surfacethe　failure　of　superhydrophobic　surface　has　also　been　explored.　This　paper　reviews　the　research　progress　of　durable　superhydrophobic　surface　prepared　femtosecond　laser　and　its　application.　In　the　section　of　backgroundfirstlyseveral　basic　wettability　models　are　introducedand　the　characteristics　of　durable　superhydrophobic　surfaces　are　analyzed.　Thenthe　advantages　of　femtosecond　laser　micro-nano　processing　in　the　preparation　of　superhydrophobic　surfaces　are　discussed.　The　research　progress　of　femtosecond　laser　preparation　of　the　durable　superhydrophobic　surface　for　different　materials　such　as　polymermetal　and　glass　were　concluded.　The　application　fields　of　durable　superhydrophobic　surface　fabricated　by　femtosecond　laser　were　summarized.　There　are　several　methods　to　improve　the　durability　of　the　superhydrophobic　surface　according　to　the　application　requirements.　Firstlythe　mechanical　stability　of　the　superhydrophobic　surface　with　multi-scale　micro-nanocomposite　structure　is　much　higher　than　that　of　the　single　micron　or　nano-scale　rough　structure.　Secondlythe　durability　of　superhydrophobic　surface　can　also　be　improved　by　strengthening　the　surface　microstructure　on　the　material　surface　through　the　bonding　layer.　This　form　of　adhesive　can　not　only　strengthen　the　bonding　strength　between　microstructure　and　surfacebut　also　play　a　buffer　role　when　the　surface　is　impacted　by　external　forceprotecting　the　micro-nano　rough　structureand　effectively　improving　the　mechanical　durability　of　superhydrophobic　surface.　Thirdlythe　physical　protection　of　micro-nano　structures　is　carried　out　by　constructing　a　surface　protective　layerthereby　improving　their　mechanical　durability.　Finallythe　construction　of　self-healing　superhydrophobic　surface　has　become　a　powerful　mean　to　improve　the　durability.　Different　from　the　previous　strategiesself-healing　strategies　mainly　focus　on　the　recovery　of　damaged　superhydrophobic　functionthereby　extending　its　service　life.　Finallythe　matrix　material　with　good　intrinsic　durability　can　be　selected.　Combined　with　femtosecond　lasera　durable　superhydrophobic　surface　can　be　prepared.　Considering　the　failure　reason　of　superhydrophobic　surface　and　the　advantages　of　femtosecond　laser　processingdurable　superhydrophobic　surfaces　were　prepared　on　different　durable　matrix　materials　which　is　of　great　significance　to　the　practical　application　of　superhydrophobic　surfaces.　The　variety　of　application　requirements　of　superhydrophobic　surfaces　are　differentand　the　corresponding　durability　requirements　also　show　a　great　variety.　Regarding　the　matrix　materialsthe　superhydrophobic　surface　matrix　material　can　be　roughly　divided　into　polymerglass　and　metal.　In　terms　of　polymersthe　superhydrophobic　surface　with　excellent　durability　in　PTFE　can　be　easily　prepared　by　femtosecond　laseras　PTFE　is　in　great　stability.　Besidesfemtosecond　laser　can　also　prepare　light　responsive　superhydrophobic　surface　on　shape　memory　polymer.　After　the　surface　structure　is　deformed　by　an　external　forceit　can　recover　to　the　initial　state　under　a　sunlightand　then　restore　to　the　superhydrophobic　state.　For　metal　materialsfemtosecond　laser　combined　with　low　surface　energy　material　modification　can　directly　prepare　superhydrophobic　surfaces　on　stainless　steelaluminumzinc　and　other　metal　surfacesand　some　of　the　superhydrophobic　properties　will　change　interestingly.　For　examplesuperhydrophobic　surfaces　fabricated　on　zinc　can　change　the　superhydrophobic　properties　in　UV　irradiation　and　dark　storage.　In　terms　of　glassthe　prepared　superhydrophobic　surface　has　very　good　mechanical　stability　and　thermal　stability.　Based　on　the　properties　of　the　substrate　materialadjusting　the　femtosecond　laser　processing　strategy　and　parameters　and　then　implementing　appropriate　chemical　modification　according　to　the　needscan　give　the　surface　of　the　substrate　material　superhydrophobic　properties.　Generally　speakingthe　durability　of　superhydrophobic　surface　includes　mechanical　durability　and　chemical　durability.　To　improve　the　mechanical　durabilitymulti-scale　micro-nano　structures　need　to　be　constructed.　The　femtosecond　laser　has　great　advantages　in　constructing　multi-scale　micro-nano　structureswhich　can　be　applied　to　almost　all　hard　materials.　In　terms　of　chemical　durabilityfemtosecond　laser　also　achieves　very　stable　superhydrophobic　surfaces　on　some　chemically　stable　and　difficult-to-machine　materials.　Based　on　many　different　matrix　materialssuperhydrophobic　materials　have　been　increasingly　applied　in　many　fields　such　as　self-cleaning　oil-water　separation　and　anti-icing.　Superhydrophobic　materials　have　been　applied　in　real　life　in
