In this work, an anti-icing coating based on superhydrophilic polyzwitterion brushes is reported. Poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PSBMA) brushes were synthesized by surface-initiated atom-transferred radical polymerization to create superhydrophilic films on silicon wafers. The thickness of the PSBMA brushes film increased linearly with the polymerization time, and the film remained superhydrophilic in a nonassociated state when the thickness was less than ∼100 nm. DSC and FTIR analyses revealed that PSBMA contains more nonfreezable bound water than typical polyelectrolytes such as poly(sodium styrenesulfonate) and poly(2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyltrimethylammonium chloride), leading to lower ice adhesion strength than the latter two. At -20 °C, the PSBMA brushes coating demonstrated low ice adhesion strength of 60 kPa, showing a significant reduction in ice adhesion by up to ∼75% compared to uncoated silicon wafer. The optimum PSBMA layer thickness for low ice adhesion was ∼100 nm. These findings suggest that polyzwitterions are excellent candidates for anti-icing coating application.
