Ready to be amazed? According to Ultra-tech, a Florida-based containment provider for chemical clean-up and waste management, its new Ultra-Ever Dry coating is an amazing product. The coating is ...

Materials scientists have created a 'superhydrophobic' coating that easily slicks away viscous liquids like syrup, honey and ketchup. They detail the engineering feat in a new paper that describes ...

Keeping porous building materials free from stains and water damage has gotten a little easier in the past few years. Thanks to advances in technology, we’ve seen the advent of things such as spray-on ...

A superhydrophobic spray-on coating set to launch next year could dramatically change our perception of the phrase "water resistant." NeverWet is a patent-pending silicon-based covering that deflects ...

Wilmington, Delaware, United States, Jan. 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transparency Market Research Inc. - The global superhydrophobic coatings market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 34.1% from ...

In theory, hydrophobic coatings are an undeniably enticing idea. With a quick spray-on treatment, they promise to create an invisible barrier around all of your gear, making it water repellent at the ...

Hydrophobic surfaces show low surface energy, so water droplets tend to repel against the surface and create beads that form a spherical droplet with a high water contact angle (>90°). Surfaces can be ...

You know the feeling. Sheets of rain hammering down, those silicone wipers working like crazy, and instead of clearing, your windshield turns into a smeared mess. That's where hydrophobic coatings ...

During rainfall, small water droplets can be observed to roll off hydrophobic umbrella surfaces at different speeds. A droplet on a round hydrophobic surface does not always slide down on the surface ...

A European group of scientists has created a novel hydrophobic antireflective (AR) coating for the cover glass of PV modules. The double-layer coating uses a silica-titania (SiO2-TiO2) thin film as ...
