Reviewer 2 Report
This work reports on the preparation of PET surfaces with hydrophobic properties. I recommend that the manuscript can be accepted for publication in Coatings after revision.
1. The title of the manuscript needs to be revised to highlight the key core of the current work.
2. Authors claimed that the particle layer in Figure 4 has a thickness of about 10-15 μm. But the boundary of this layer is not very clear. Can the authors give a clear boundary for particle layer and film layer with arrows?
