spectrum of possible applications. These coatings have played crucial role not only in developing new tools and_x000D_
technologies but also helped in improving the performance of existing ones. To this point, plethora of reports_x000D_
claiming liquid repellent coatings have been surfaced, however, very few have managed to get recognized for_x000D_
industrial applications. Still the search for cost effective and durable liquid repellent coatings is ongoing_x000D_
activity; this proposal abides the objective of development of a highly durable liquid repellent coating with_x000D_
potential of being utilized for industrial applications. The liquid repellent coating will be designed by the_x000D_
partner industry and its performance evaluation will be carried out at iSSELab University of Alberta. The_x000D_
performance of the coating will be investigated in different environment conditions and the effect of various_x000D_
parameters on the durability of the coatings will be probed., program purpose french : Liquid repellent coatings have garnered huge attention among scientific communities owing to their wide_x000D_
