Anti‐ice Coatings: Anti‐Ice Coating Inspired by Ice Skating (Small 22/2014)
Source abstract
Abstract
An anti-ice coating with an aqueous lubricating layer is prepared by J. Wang and co-workers. On page 4693, this coating is shown to consist of hygroscopic polymers, which collect water from the vicinity, naturally forming a lubricating layer of water as icing occurs. The lubricating layer endows the coating with low ice adhesion for easy de-icing. Another key component in the coating is dopamine, a versatile adhesive, which renders the coating applicable to almost all types of solid surfaces.
