Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.
How we got this date
- NSF lists this award's end date as 31 July 2029.
- NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
- So the final report is due by 28 November 2029.

Abstract
This project will analyze what happens when supercooled water droplets hit cold surfaces. Supercooled droplets are unique because they stay liquid below the freezing point (0 C). Tiny laboratory droplets can stay liquid down to -40 C. This study will examine hidden freezing processes and the way droplets interact with surfaces. The research will explore ways to stop or delay ice buildup, which is important…
