Impacts of Thermal Cycling on Hydrophobicity and Ice Adhesion on Ice-phobic Coatings for Energy Related Application

摘要

The initial results indicate that the water-based fluo-ro polymer coating has potential for success as stable high temperature application of ice phobic coatings. However impact of heat ageing on surface properties like roughness factor, surface energy changes, chemical degradation need to be considered for future work, since there is signification color change observed on coating which might affect the later mentioned properties.
