Nissan self-cleaning car-too powerful! Please evolve the dishes and clothes.

Earlier a new type of material called "Ultra-ever Dry" was surprising. This nanometer material has the super hydrophobic performance, therefore in the oil pollution, the mud, the water spatter isolation test, uses the Ultra-ever Dry manufacture gloves and the blouse to show the black science and technology level anti-adhesion performance ...

In fact, Ultra-ever Dry is used to simulate the structure of the lotus leaf surface and form a high hydrophobicity. Simply speaking, a layer of low viscosity of the nano-level of fluff, Jean can not contact with the surface of the object, and then due to their own surface tension and the formation of drops of water rolled. So the material has the magical effect of "self-cleaning" in the experiment.

If the car's paint is Ultra-ever Dry, is it not a car wash? Nissan, the Japanese carmaker, thought. Nissan Europe is testing the material on the vehicle's anti-fouling performance, usually the car in the road environment is mainly dirt, dust and rain, which is ultra-ever Dry material is a trivial matter.

As we can see from the video, Nissan has a simple test on one of its MVP models: half the body is sprayed with ultra-ever Dry material and the other half is intact. Then in the road test can be seen in the original adsorption capacity of the mud sprinkled in the "feed" that half of the car, but become a drop of water sliding down. In this note after the destruction of various road conditions, you can see the unmodified half of the body has been dusty, the other half is still bright as new (according to, how to think this is washing powder ads).

The material was developed by Ultratech, a US company, and Nissan was the first car company to try to use Ultra-ever Dry technology. But Nissan has not yet put ultra-ever Dry as the standard for its cars, but according to the company's usual practice, if the new material can be tested in many ways, the future will become some advanced models of the optional configuration, the possibility is very high.

But Nissan's approach is still somewhat simpler, namely, to make up a layer of ultra-ever Dry in the enclosure after the car is manufactured. According to previous tests, the effect of Ultra-ever Dry can only last 2-8 months. It is expected that the future car companies will be able to import this technology in the paint, of course, the car wash shop owner is not happy.
