Abstract
Ice phobic coatings and substrates and methods of making and using them are described. Some embodiments provide for an ice-phobic coating including a hydrophobic entity bonded to a hydrophilic moiety, wherein the hydrophilic moiety is capable of lowering a freezing point of water. Some embodiments provide for an ice-phobic article including a substrate having the ice-phobic coating applied on the substrate. In some embodiments, a method of making an ice-phobic coating may include bonding the hydrophobic entity with the hydrophilic moiety. In some embodiments, a method of making an ice-phobic article includes applying the ice-phobic coating to a substrate. Some embodiments also provide for a kit for making an ice-phobic article. Such ice-phobic coatings may be used to coat or impregnate winter equipment, cloth, shoes, sporting equipment, road signs, traffic lights, sidewalks, aircrafts, vehicles, or the like.
