While anti-fog sprays work to a certain extent, warming a glass surface is a better way of keeping it fog-free. A new coating material is designed to do so, and it utilizes light-absorbing gold ...

In a nutshell: Researchers at ETH Zurich have spent the last few years perfecting a coating capable of passively preventing fogging on glass surfaces. Their latest iteration consists of extremely thin ...

In an advance toward glass that remains clear under the harshest of conditions, scientists are reporting development of a new water-repellant coating that resists both fogging and frosting. Their ...

A new coating for glass developed by Rice University researchers and collaborators could help reduce energy bills, especially during the cold season, by preventing heat-loss from leaky windows. The ...

As the name suggests, “self-cleaning glass” can clean dirt and grime present on its surface and requires minimal amounts of maintenance. The development of such glass is due to the advancement in the ...

A polymer coating that transforms opaque water droplets into smooth transparent sheets could be used to keep car windows, bathroom mirrors and spectacles from fogging up. “You can never stop the water ...
