From Candu link.

8. Zentek Ltd. (https://www.zentek.com/) Project Title: Developing a Passive Icephobic Coating for Dash 8-400 Propellers Project Description: Ice is one of the significant challenges that the aviation industry faces. Ice increases the weight of planes, but more importantly changes the aerodynamic profile of wings and propellors. There are two main pathways to reduce the effects of ice: to actively control the ice through heat or mechanical energy during flights, or to provide a passive coating that will allow ice to shed at low kPa. Zentek has developed a patent-pending passive icephobic coating that will be assessed and optimized for the Dash 8-400 propellers. Environmental Impact: A passive icephobic coating on a propeller will improve safety, reduce the energy of in-flight de-icing and reduce the complexity of the current active systems that require regular maintenance.

Remember all the great work our friend Paul Lebbin did on indoor air quality in airlines. I know that’s hanging there, but as the site mentions GREEN… that could fit our fuel additive OR our anti-icing solution. We have 3 irons we can use to chip in an eagle in the airline industry. (Fire retardant would be a strong 4 still in the bag)

***UPDATE*** Click the Zentek logo and it tells what we are being funded for. Anti Icing for the Dash 8 propellers! Cool!
