This sucks that they do not show the images of each figure. Descriptions only help so much.

In my opinion, this is a pretty awesome paragraph/statement:

The high thermal conductivity of GrF allows deicing of surfaces in free-standing GrF-PDMS deicing composites and those coated on the Ti-6Al-4V substrate to be completed in time periods of less than a minute, which is about a 90% reduction in time for the deicing of surfaces where graphene nanoribbons (GNR) are the basis of deicing systems, as in Raji et al. and Wang et al. Exceptional heat dissipation exhibited by the GrF-PDMS deicing composite is attributed to the three-dimensional interconnected architecture of GrF allowing the uniform dissipation of heat in the transverse and longitudinal direction.



1. Reduction in time to de-ice to below or around 1-min (90% reduction).

2. The foam allows the dissipation of heat much faster than convention due to its dimension (foam). It has a lot more surface area expelling heat in various directions.

Pretty awesome stuff.
