Room temperature curing sustainable hybrid cross-linked coating enables efficient dynamic icephobicity of unmanned aerial vehicles

XWXiangzhao WangGLGuiping LinZZZichen Zhang

Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate a novel hybrid cross-linked coating for its effectiveness in preventing ice accumulation on UAVs.
  • Developed a room temperature curing hybrid coating.
  • Conducted tests to measure ice adhesion and dynamic performance of coated UAVs.
  • Analyzed the operational impacts of atmospheric icing on UAV stability.
  • The coating significantly reduced ice adhesion compared to conventional surfaces.
  • UAVs with the new coating retained flight stability under icing conditions.
  • Demonstrated improved efficiency in ice management for UAV operations.

Abstract

Atmospheric icing represents a significant operational hazard for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), accounting for approximately 1/4 of all UAV-related accidents, predominantly due to compromised flight stability caused by ice buildup....
