Abstract
The anti-icing composition of the present invention includes a glassy matrix formed by crosslinking a mixture of a functionally-terminated silicone and an alkoxy-functionalized siloxane to provide an interpenetrating polymer network of glass and silicone, at least two materials capable of microphase separation, at least one of which is graftable to the glassy matrix and a freezing point depression agent. The present invention also provides a glass matrix formed by crosslinking a mixture of an epoxy, an alkoxy-functionalized siloxane, and a compound capable of compatibilizing the epoxy and the alkoxy-functionalized silaxane to provide an epoxy-modified interpenetrating polymer network of glass and epoxy.
