Research Progress of Self-Cleaning, Anti-Icing, and Aging Test Technology of Composite Insulators
TLDR
In this paper , the authors introduce the research progress and current situation of self-cleaning, anti-icing surface preparation, and aging test technology of composite insulators, and look forward to the future development of composite INSulators.Abstract:
Composite insulators are widely used in power systems because of their advantages of light weight, good pollution resistance, and high mechanical strength. With the increasingly serious environmental pollution problem, especially in winter at high latitudes, composite insulators are easily affected by fog, bird droppings, algae, and icing. Long-term exposure to the outdoor insulator surface will cause aging, which will then pose ae potential safety hazard to the stable operation of insulators. Therefore, the self-cleaning, anti-icing, and aging test technologies of composite insulators are particularly important. This paper introduces the research progress and current situation of self-cleaning, anti-icing surface preparation, and aging test technology of composite insulators, and looks forward to the future development of composite insulators.read more

Patterned Superhydrophobic Metallic Surfaces
TL;DR: This work shows that after creating certain dual scale roughness structures by femtosecond laser irradiation different metal alloys initially show superhydrophilic behavior with complete wetting of the structured surface, however, over time, these surfaces become nearly super Hydrophobic with contact angles in the vicinity of 150 degrees and superHydrophobicwith contact angles above 150 degrees.
