Abstract:

In this paper, four non-metallic materials, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyurethane, polypropylene, polymethyl methacrylate, were selected as adhesion substrates to study the effect of different non-metallic substrate materials on shear ice adhesion strength. Firstly, the static contact angle of the non-metallic substrate surfaces and the surface hardness of different substrates were measured; secondly the shear ice adhesion strength of 5 mL of water frozen at -20 °C for 1 h was measured by a self-made experiment device. The test results showed that the shear ice adhesion strengths on the four non-metallic substrate surfaces were 82.89, 45.26, 99.53, 151.27 kPa, respectively. The shear ice adhesion strength on the non-metallic substrate surface was not linearly to surface wettability, but positively linearly related to the hardness. It was found that the water attached to the substrate surface could undergo phase transformation during the freezing process; in low-temperature environments, low-hardness materials could be prone to shrinkage when exposed to cold. In anice-solid adhesion system, the micro-deformation would occur on the substrate surface in contact with the accreted ice. This deformation interferes with the stability of the adhesion interface between the ice and the substrate. Hence, the shear ice adhesion strength on the non-metallic substrate surface would be reduced. This paper could provide theoretical support for the development and optimization of the anti/de-icing method in the engineering field, especially for the selection of non-metallic materials in the components to be anti/de-iced.

Key words: ice adhesion, non-metallic material, shear ice adhesion strength, surface property, phase transformation, interface stability
