DOI: 10.1002/adem.202402996
Abstract: Icephobicity encompasses a multifaceted definition that necessitates evaluations across various scales, from single droplets to larger ice specimens. The predominant method for evaluating icephobicity performance is ice adhesion strength (IAS) testing. Multiple geometries and scales… read more here.
