The Modification of Polyvinyl Alcohol for Ice Nucleation Based upon the Structures of Antifreeze Glycoproteins Found in Antarctic Fish
Various alternative compounds have been investigated to prevent icing, one of which includes poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA), which has shown promising anti-freeze effects. However, determining the optimal structures and formulations of PVA for anti-icing applications has remained a challenge. Building up...
