  • Ice Adhesion Mitigation
    Publication number: 20080286473
    Abstract: Hydrophobic coating compositions containing siloxanes and fluoropolymer resin hinder the accumulation of moisture and reduce the adhesion of ice formed on the coating. Applications of such coating compositions to surfaces thus reduce the propensity for ice formation on a treated surface, and ease the dislodging of any ice formed on the treated surface.
