Nanostructured Surfaces to Reduce Dust Adhesion

By Smart Material Solutions, Inc.

Smart Material Solutions, Inc. and Professor Chih-Hao Chang’s group at UT Austin recently created nanopatterns that significantly decrease the adhesion of Lunar dust for a NASA-funded project (Figure 4). This is great news for solar panels both in space and on Earth!
