Researchers develop a new anti-icing polyurethane methacrylate coating

a new r&d effort focuses on the curing of urethane methacrylate coatings by uv exposure to facilitate the fabrication of high-performance, hydrophilic, anti-icing coatings. according to the latest report, high-performance hydrophilic anti-icing coatings with carboxyl groups are easily prepared by curing polyurethane methacrylate prepolymers with ultraviolet light. it is made of polyisophorone diisocyanate methacrylate (ipdi),…
