A moth's eye and lotus leaf were the inspirations for an antireflective water-repelling, or superhydrophobic, glass coating that holds significant potential for solar panels, lenses, detectors, ...

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 ...

A new coating for glass developed by Rice University researchers and collaborators could help reduce energy bills, especially during the cold season, by preventing heat-loss from leaky windows. The ...

A reflective, low-e coating that its manufacturer says provides significantly higher daylight transmission and lower reflectivity over its former product has been introduced by glass producer ...

The microporous glass coating reflects up to 99% of solar radiation and uses radiative cooling to lower temperatures indoors by 3.5 degrees Celsius. Environmentally stable and durable, the coating ...

Whether you are building your own hot rod at home or having a professional shop do it for you, you'll find that powder coating colors have a lot to offer. Sometimes called powder paint, powder coating ...

A South Korean research team led by Korea Electronic Technology Institute (KETI) reported that quartz glass with a thermally annealed aluminum-doped zinc oxide film can provide electron radiation ...

The authors experiment with a resonant acoustic mixer as a method for dry powder coating. Efficient handling and transport of fine-particle powders can be difficult because of the highly cohesive ...

There are three basic ways to make a car and/or its parts look good: painting, plating, and powdercoating. Since we just finished our huge, 10-part series on how to paint your car last month, this ...

Epoxy powder coatings provide various properties determined by the choice of epoxy resin, curing agent, and curing schedule. Typical advantages include high-temperature durability, dielectric strength ...
