Icephobic surfaces for ice, snow shedding in utility scale solar
“Developed by U.S. researchers, the proposed coating solution is claimed to effectively melt ice and snow with temperatures of up to -35 degrees Celsius. It was fabricated by using medium-chain triglyceride oil to plasticize two common industrial polymer polyvinyl chlorides and tested at a pilot facility in Alaska. U.S. researchers have developed a coating … [Read more…]
