This Department of Defense (DoD) grant, the Ice Control for cold Environments (ICE) program, is designed to develop innovative solutions for extreme cold weather operational challenges faced by the DoD. Its primary purpose is to identify and optimize biologically sourced or inspired molecules capable of inhibiting or nucleating ice crystallization, propagation, and adhesion. The most effective molecules discovered will then be formulated into novel materials. These materials will be specifically tailored and rigorously tested for various DoD applications, aiming to significantly enhance operational performance and mitigate critical cold weather issues, directly addressing stakeholder needs and priorities. The grant seeks to advance ice control technologies for demanding environments.

| Description: | The Ice Control for cold Environments (ICE) program seeks to develop solutions for extreme cold weather DoD operational challenges by discovering and optimizing biologically sourced or inspired molecules to enable tuned inhibition or nucleation of ice crystallization, propagation, and adhesion. The best performing molecules identified during the discovery phase will subsequently be formulated to develop novel materials with enhanced operational performance, tailored to mitigate extreme cold weather challenges for specific DoD applications, and tested based on stakeholder needs and priorities. |
