Solar Sharc

Solar Sharc® is a durable repellent coating which is being developed for deposition onto PV modules. It will eliminate the accumulation of surface contamination

Our nanoparticles play a huge role in the development of BIPV (along with our partners @onyxsolar ), and as cities are encouraged to implement 'solar skins' this is becoming even more important in the fight against carbon emissions: https://t.co/bM7LAt6JtO

Our parent company, @OpusMatTech has worked with @GKNAero on other projects and this is positive news - the acceleration of industrial additive manufacturing around two of their initiatives, AIRLIFT and DAM. https://t.co/1rA0YuR5Np

[Sharc Matter @MatterSharc]

This has fascinating potential applications (and some which may also freak people out....) https://t.co/uQ8znCqoZf
