Abstract
Abstract The icing of the overhead aluminum conductor has caused the conductor load to be too heavy or uneven, which results in huge accidents. The super-lubricated surface (SLIPS) shows great potential in anti-icing. Glaze ice is a common type of icing, and its damage to transmission lines is the most serious. However, the properties and influencing factors of anti-icing lubricated surfaces at glaze ice surroundings are rarely reported. In this study, the super-lubricated surface was prepared by the anodic oxidation method, and the anti-icing properties and influencing factors of surfaces were investigated in glaze ice surroundings. The results demonstrate that the SLIPS can decrease the icing amount, which is only 41% of the original aluminum surface. SLIPS exhibits excellent anti-icing performance in different environments temperatures and rainfalls. This study provides experimental guidance for the practice application of SLIPS in anti-icing aluminum conductors.
