Inspired by natural columnar nacre, artificial montmorillonite/hydroxyethyl cellulose columnar nacre‐like materials with a site‐specific layered structure in the interior and a hierarchical columnar structure on the surface are prepared. The materials exhibit improved tensile strength, good chemical stability in seawater, superior resistance to sand‐grain impingement, and robust underwater low‐adhesive superoleophobicity.
