Low friction coatings tech news
On July 2, 2026, CoolFlow Tech introduced "Data--Glide," a low--friction internal coating for liquid cooling manifolds in hyperscale data centers. The coating utilizes a superhydrophobic fluoropolymer layer that reduces fluidic drag within micro--channels by 22%. By lowering the pumping power required to circulate coolant, the technology improves overall Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and allows for higher density server configurations without increasing the cooling infrastructure footprint.
