Solar panels can’t operate efficiently if they’re caked in dirt, but cleaning them regularly can be a time-consuming process. Engineers in Germany have now developed an ultra-thin coating that can ...

Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam and Plasma Technology (FEP) claims to have applied crystalline titanium oxide to ultra-thin glass for the first time in a ...

(Nanowerk News) A University of Houston researcher has developed a nanoparticle coating for solar panels that makes it easier to keep the panels clean, maintaining their efficiency for longer and ...

Q: We have a relatively flat roof on our house that is covered with foam but that needs to have an elastomeric coating put over the foam every few years. But if I have solar panels installed on the ...

IRVINE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 10, 2023 / The urge to maximize sustainable energy production has rocketed as scientists continue to remind us of the worsening climate crisis. Particularly because ...

Researchers in India have demonstrated a wet chemical process to recover silicon with high purity from end-of-life solar panels, which they used to make functionalized silica nanoparticles. Tests of ...

It's important to give careful consideration to the direction that rooftop solar panels are facing in order to pull maximum energy from the sun, but a new type of material might mean their orientation ...

Powder coating is a finish you’ll find quite often, as it’s no stranger to components exposed to the harshest environments. Hitches, suspension pieces, wheels, and even engine parts are all familiar ...
