“…A diluted solution of selected cleaning agent with optimized ratio was taken and with the help of a dropper, a non-ionic surfactant such as Lutensol 30, Lutensol 60, Lutensol 80, and Lutensol 90 was added simultaneously and stirred giving a greasy effect to the solution. Again, the aforementioned parameters were determined and the most suitable proportion was locked and used for the next part of the experiment (Cai et al, 2015).…”

The temperature differences across glass or plastic shield causes fogging which ultimately reduce visibility for workers at workplaces particularly in industry particularly transportation. The research implicated the development of a promising anti-fog agent in order to reduce the risks of accidents due to poor visibility. Anti-fog agent was developed in laboratory through varying formulation of ingredients such as deionized water, Iso propyl alcohol, non-ionic surfactants, sodium lauryl ether sulfate 33%, silicone wacker and alkane sulphonate. After achieving successful results at laboratory and pilot through standard testing, anti-fog agent was provided to drivers of local transport at commercial scale and their responses were obtained through questionnaires. The results revealed significant (P<0.05) satisfaction of drivers for wind screens of cars, coasters buses as well as helmet screen of bikers. This study provided a promising solution for one of the most important concerns of fogging in transportation causing accidents. Further, this anti-fog agent can be replicated in other industries facing visual problems as a result of fogging. It is recommended that this anti-fog agent should be supplied at commercial scale after approval from concerning government department to avoid future loss.

“…The techniques mentioned above cover the most common bottom-up approaches for producing anti-fogging surfaces; however, other not less important ones have not been addressed here. These include: solvent casting methods [215][216][217]; bar coating methods [218][219][220][221][222][223]; spray coating techniques [91,[224][225][226]; and multi-step approaches [227,228].…”

Glass-and polymer-based materials have become essential in the fabrication of a multitude of elements, including eyeglasses, automobile windshields, bathroom mirrors, greenhouses, and food packages, which unfortunately mist up under typical operating conditions. Far from being an innocuous phenomenon, the formation of minute water drops on the surface is detrimental to their optical properties (e.g., light-transmitting capability) and, in many cases, results in esthetical, hygienic, and safety concerns. In this context, it is therefore not surprising that research in the field of fog-resistant surfaces is gaining in popularity, particularly in recent years, in view of the growing number of studies focusing on this topic. This review addresses the most relevant advances released thus far on anti-fogging surfaces, with a particular focus on coating deposition, surface micro/nanostructuring, and surface functionalization. A brief explanation of how surfaces fog up and the main issues of interest linked to fogging phenomenon, including common problems, anti-fogging strategies, and wetting states are first presented. Anti-fogging mechanisms are then discussed in terms of the morphology of water drops, continuing with a description of the main fabrication techniques toward anti-fogging property. This review concludes with the current and the future perspectives on the utility of anti-fogging surfaces for several applications and some remaining challenges in this field.

“…The problems also appear when sunlight energy is to be maximally used, e.g. in hothouses where dew can significantly reduce light transmittance leading to decreased yield [9]. Dew deposition on photovoltaic panels also reduces their effectiveness [10].…”

Effective method for the production of anti-fog (dew-resistant) coatings based on bifunctional polysiloxanes

et al. 2020

Anti-fog (dew-resistant) coatings were produced employing as active components bifunctional polysiloxanes containing polyether (hydrophilic and polar) groups and trialkoxysilyl groups (permitting durable adhesion to glass surface). These bifunctional polysiloxanes were obtained as a result of consequent hydrosilylation of allyl polyethers and vinyltrialkoxysilane with the use of poly(dimethyl-co--hydromethyl)siloxane. The effect of structure of the polysiloxane used (length of siloxane chain, length of polyether chain, content of functional groups) and its concentration of the coating performance were analyzed. The designed preparation permits easy production of a durable anti-fog and dew-resistant coating from widely accessible raw materials and with no need of special pretreatment of glass surface.
