Recent investigations have illuminated the intriguing behaviour of water adjacent to hydrophilic surfaces. This interfacial water, often forming a so-called exclusion zone (EZ), exhibits unique ...

Surfaces that repel water can support efficient boiling if all air and vapor is removed from a system first, according to new research. Surfaces that repel water can support efficient boiling if all ...

Making masks and personal protective equipment (PPE) with hydrophilic surfaces, where droplets of coronavirus spread out and dry faster, could reduce infection risk, researchers say. Since the ...

A hydrophilic and oleophobic surface repels oil. This innovative surface property has received increasing attention since it excels at anti-fogging, detergent-free cleaning, and oil and water ...

How does one go about improving high temperature hydrophobicity and oleophobicity in fuel injector and combustion applications? This question has been answered by SilcoTek through the development of ...
