Abstract

Realizing icephobic surfaces with low ice adhesion and durability continues to be fascinating as well as challenging. Herein, a norbornene-based fluorinated polymer (NFP) with high flexibility and high tensile strength is designed and fabricated using a fluorinated side chain and a norbornene backbone, displaying low ice shear strength less than 20 kPa and excellent durability. Experimental and theoretical analyses show that the flexibility of the polymer chains and the synergistic macromolecular aggregation of the fluorinated side groups and the norbornene backbone play key roles in the excellent surface icephobic properties of the NFP films. Moreover, we also develop a facile approach to the design of durable icephobic slippery surfaces, which possess remarkable icephobic performance. This study not only sheds light on the relationship between the polymer molecular structure and surface icephobic properties but also provides a new avenue to conveniently realize anti-icing coatings.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
