Abstract
The previous article introduced the idea of a superhydrophobic coating from carbon nanoparticles that can combine the lotus effect, the slip effect and electric current heating. A further development of this idea was suggested. The article demonstrated the possibility of a practical implementation of the suggested approach using two coating layers—the electro-thermal layer from carbon nanotubes and the water-repellent layer from onion-like carbons. This coating allows to conserve energy during periods of slight cooling simply due to the use of the lotus effect. The heating is used to prevent icing at lower temperatures. The best contact angle achieved equals 155.9 ± 0.5 degrees at a slip start angle of 1.2 ± 0.5 degrees.
