Icing is a natural phenomenon that impacts various aspects of daily life and safety, including aeronautics, ground transportation, critical operations, power systems (like power lines, wind turbines, and solar panels), communication systems, and infrastructures. In particular, activities at high latitudes or altitudes require energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable ice protection solutions.

This book consolidates information on modeling, coating, material preparation, characterization, fabrication, and applications of anti-icing surfaces. It provides a comprehensive understanding of icephobic coating strategies and their industrial applications. Divided into two parts, it covers the theory and physics of icing and presents scientific advances from the SURFICE project, including industry case studies. It's a valuable resource for scientists and engineers interested in surface science and thermodynamics related to icing phenomena.

Key features:

Brings together the state-of-the-art physics of icing and anti-icing/icephobic materials with cutting-edge advances in ice-related coating technologies Integrates information about the modelling, coating and material preparation, characterization and applications of anti-icing surfaces Covers the fundamentals of anti-icing coating strategies based on icephobicity and the possible implementation into industrial systems Presents both fundamental and applied research, including case-studies from industry in fields including aeronautics, energy systems and sensor technologies Based on the outcomes of the EU SURFICE project (www.surfice-itn.eu)

Prof. Carlo Antonini is an associate professor at the University of Milano-Bicocca, Italy. He received his PhD in Technologies for Energy and Environment from the University of Bergamo in 2011. He joined ETH Zurich as a Marie Curie Fellow in 2012, EMPA as a scientist in 2015, and the University of Milano-Bicocca in 2018. He was tenured as an associate professor in 2021 and directs the Surface Engineering and Fluid Interfaces (SEFI) Laboratory. Dr Irene Tagliaro graduated with an MSc in Chemistry Science and Technology from the University of Milano Bicocca in 2015 and earned her PhD in Nanotechnology and Materials Science in 2019. During 2020-2024, she worked as project manager of SURFICE. Now, she works as Assistant Professor in SEFI Lab University of Milano-Bicocca, focusing on biopolymeric materials and surface interactions.
