The present disclosure relates to polymers which are cross-linked reaction products of a reactive siloxane and/or a polyisocyanate and/or a polyol, a polyamine and/or reactive coating capable of reducing the ability of ice to adhere to the surface of an object, in particular aircraft or other vehicles, methods of producing the polymers and their use in coating surfaces.
