Superhydrophobic Asphalt Pavements: Surface Improvement [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
The most adverse weather condition for road safety happens when there is water, snow, or ice on the road surface because their presence highly decreases friction. Therefore, it is essential to drain or repel them quickly. If the water drops are repelled from the surface or the ice/snow formation is avoided with the application of superhydrophobic ...
