The invention relates to a copper based super-hydrophobic surface with a low friction coefficient and a preparation method thereof. The copper based super-hydrophobic surface with a low friction coefficient is characterized in that chemical etching is performed on the surface of a copper based material to form a coarse structure with a micron-scale pit structure and submicron/nano-scale metal silver particles, and then a product is obtained through surface chemical modification. The copper based super-hydrophobic surface with low friction coefficient has a contact angle of more than 150 degrees to water, is low in friction coefficient, can be stably maintained, and has good super-hydrophobic properties and low friction coefficient.
