A perfectly efficient blade would capture all the energy in the wind passing through it, which, sadly isn't possible in the real world. Physics, in the form of Betz's Law, dictates a theoretical maximum efficiency of around 59.

Polymer-based protective coatings such as polyethylene oxide (PEO), polyurethane (PU), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) are promising options due to their flexibilities, cost-effectiveness, and tunability.
