  • Anti-icing surfaces exhibiting low interfacial toughness with ice
    Patent number: 11965112
    Abstract: An anti-icing coating is provided having low interfacial toughness (LIT) with ice. The anti-icing coating includes a polymer and a plasticizing agent. A thickness of the anti-icing coating may be less than or equal to about 100 micrometers (?m). Further, the anti-icing coating has an interfacial toughness (?ice) with ice of less than or equal to about 1 J/m2. Such an anti-icing coating may be applied to a substrate or surface of a device on which ice may form, such as aircraft, vehicles, marine vessels, outdoor equipment, snow or ice removal equipment, recreational equipment, wind turbines, telecommunications equipment, power lines, and the like. Methods of forming such anti-icing coatings are also provided.

  • LONG LASTING ANTIMICROBIAL SURFACES BASED ON THE CROSS-LINKING OF NATURAL OILS WITHIN POLYMER NETWORKS
    Publication number: 20210213156
    Abstract: An antimicrobial composition is provided. The antimicrobial composition includes a polymer matrix, an oil-derived component covalently bonded to the polymer matrix, and an oil-derived antimicrobial component non-covalently associated with at least one of the polymer matrix and the oil-derived component. Methods of making and using the antimicrobial composition are also provided.
