Customer ServiceHowever, in many colder climates worldwide, ice and snow accumulation on solar panels is prevalent and can negatively affect the efficiency or even stop the production of energy. A superhydrophobic coating has been proposed as a functional coating for use in solar cell and outdoor applications.
Recently, intensive research efforts have been dedicated to solar anti-icing/frosting surfaces (SASs), which can absorb sunlight efficiently and convert solar energy to heat, thereby delaying or preventing ice formation (28 – 30).
The transparency and intrinsic antireflective effect can be optimized to ensure maximum light transmission and increased efficiency. A stable and mechanically robust coating would allow for minimal maintenance, prolong the benefits of the sought after properties, and increase the overall useful life of a solar device.

Wang et al. demonstrated that a superhydrophobic coating can not only be effective in delaying the start of icing, but also in increasing the whole icing process time compared with the plain surface under the same experimental conditions. In addition, the morphology and composition of the iced solid surface plays an important role.
The formation of frost can result in the loss of the superhydrophobic state and complete saturation of the surface morphology by frost which will lead to an increased ice–substrate contact area, and thus to increased ice adhesion and the loss of icephobicity.
