Abstract

Nanotechnology is a relatively new field of science that focuses on technology at the nanoscale. Matter in this dimension often shows significantly different properties that find their application in completely new technical areas [1]. General Aviation, like every other area of aviation, constantly strives to reduce the costs of production and operation of aircraft while maintaining unchanged safety and reliability parameters. Systems used in aviation, for example communication, usually do not apply in the area of General Aviation because of their cost. An example of this is the anti-icing system used in passenger airliners, which cannot be used in GA aircraft due to the costs and additional construction load. Carbon nanotubes exhibit very good hydrophobic properties, thanks to that, they can turn out to be an excellent substitute for systems in the area of aviation transport.
