While anti-fog sprays work to a certain extent, warming a glass surface is a better way of keeping it fog-free. A new coating material is designed to do so, and it utilizes light-absorbing gold ...

In a nutshell: Researchers at ETH Zurich have spent the last few years perfecting a coating capable of passively preventing fogging on glass surfaces. Their latest iteration consists of extremely thin ...

We've been hearing a lot about the antibacterial qualities of silver, with silver nanoparticles finding use in everything from water filters to food packaging. Unfortunately, there are also concerns ...

A group of Swiss researcher have found a cost-effective way to end one of the banes of eyeglass-wearers everywhere—foggy lenses. The unlikely solution may surprise you. Thanks to advancements and ...

Those who wear glasses during winter will be all too familiar with the annoyance of them fogging up. But researchers have developed a coating that could make the inconvenience a thing of the past. The ...

Several advanced applications require engineers to specify a hard electrochemically deposited gold coating. This coating should be able to integrate the theoretical reflectivity and emissivity of gold ...

In electronics, the race for smaller is huge. Physicists are working to harness the power of nanowires, microscopic wires that have the potential to improve solar cells or revolutionize fiber optics.

Pantyhose might soon be on the cutting edge of fashion, thanks to new light-emitting textiles created from the much-maligned staple of women’s wear. Light-up fabrics typically incorporate hard ...

Powder coating is a finish you’ll find quite often, as it’s no stranger to components exposed to the harshest environments. Hitches, suspension pieces, wheels, and even engine parts are all familiar ...

For parts with lower temperature thresholds, such as composites, an ultraviolet (UV) curable powder coating can be an ideal solution. Source (All Images) | Keyland Polymer From aerospace and ...
