The anti-icing system significantly delays ice formation up to 717 seconds, preventing aerodynamic losses.
Experimental results show the system achieves contact angles over 157°, confirming superior anti-icing properties.
This strategy combines the longevity of passive coatings with the rapid action of electrothermal de-icing technology.
Robust tests ensure the composite maintains effectiveness under extreme conditions, highlighting its environmental stability.
