METHOD FOR PREVENTING SNOW AND ICE DEPOSIT

PURPOSE:To reduce fixing force of deposited snow and ice and interrupting heat transfer from a base member of a vehicle for preventing the deposited snow and ice from melting, and preventing decrease in growth of ice block caused by re-freezing of them, by covering a base member of the vehicle by a foam body layer and a smooth skin layer surface. CONSTITUTION:A foam body layer 2 which is composed of synthetic resin having glass transfer temperature loss than 0 deg.C and has a smooth skin layer surface 3 is attached to a base member 1 by bond layer 4 or screws for covering it. Further, a foam structure of the foam body layer is preferably constructed of independent cell bodies and a foaming ratio is preferably 3-20 times. In addition, a paint layer of 30-150mum thickness composed of fluorocarbon resin and the like is formed on the smooth skin layer surface 3 which serves as an ice deposit prevent coating layer. With above-mentioned arrangement, fixing force of deposited snow and ice is reduced and the internal cells interrupt heat transfer from the base member for preventing the deposited snow and ice from freezing, whereby decrease in growth of ice block caused by re-freezing of them can be prevented.
