Retrofitting facades and also solar panels easily with ultra-thin glass
Cleaning glass facades and solar installments is costly as well as time-consuming. Dirt lowers the yield of solar modules. Nevertheless, the Fraunhofer Institute for Organic Electronics, Electron Beam as well as Plasma Technology (FEP) has actually currently been successful in applying crystalline titanium oxide to ultra-thin glass using a roll-to-roll procedure, thus achieving hydrophobic surfaces that come to be superhydrophilic under UV light.
