Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates effective anti-icing performance in harsh environments, suggesting new coating solutions.

Key Points

  • This study aims to create a durable, cost-effective photothermal superhydrophobic coating for anti-icing applications.
  • Developed a one-step spraying technique for a modified epoxy resin system.
  • Incorporated silicon dioxide and carbon black for dual-scale hierarchical structure.
  • Evaluated performance under various environmental stressors, including UV aging and thermal stability.
  • Achieved a water contact angle of 169.2° and a sliding angle of 1.7°.
  • Reduced ice adhesion strength from 80.4 kPa to 21.5 kPa at -30 °C.
  • Extended freezing time for water droplets on aluminum from 27 s to 93 s.
