In this work, we investigate the wettability of ZrO<sub>2</sub> nanotubes (ZrNT) synthesized <i>via</i> electrochemical anodization of zirconium. The ZrNT surface shows super-hydrophilic behavior while the octadecylphosphonic acid (C<sub>18</sub>H<sub>37</sub>PO(OH)<sub>2</sub>) modified surface shows super-hydrophobic behavior. We demonstrate that the wetting properties are independent of ZrO<sub>2</sub> nanotube geometry and length.
