3D Imaging of Water-Drop Condensation on Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Lubricant-Impregnated Surfaces
Condensation of water from the atmosphere on a solid surface is an ubiquitous phenomenon in nature and has diverse technological applications, e.g. in heat and mass transfer. We investigated the condensation kinetics of water drops on a lubricant-impregnated surface, i.e., a micropillar array impregnated with a non-volatile ionic liquid. Growing and coalescing drops were imaged in 3D using a la...
متن کاملFluctuations of water near extended hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces.
We use molecular dynamics simulations of the SPC-E model of liquid water to derive probability distributions for water density fluctuations in probe volumes of different shapes and sizes, both in the bulk as well as near hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. Our results are obtained with a biased sampling of coarse-grained densities that is easily combined with molecular dynamics integration al...
متن کاملFibronectin Adsorption on Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces
Studies have been carried out on the adsorption properties of plasma fibronectin (FN) on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces used were nonwettable bacteriological dishes and wettable tissue culture dishes, respectively. At low plasma FN concentrations, there was more plasma FN binding to hydrophobic surfaces than to hydrophilic surfaces. Under these co...
متن کاملCondensation and Wetting Behavior on Surfaces With Micro-Structures: Super-Hydrophobic and Super-Hydrophilic
Recently it has become possible to achieve radical manipulation of surface wettability, and wettability is known to play a key role in the retention of condensate and frost melt on heat exchanger surfaces. In this paper we present a review of methods to produce such surfaces, and we describe a super-hydrophobic surface, with a contact angle of 148°, created in our lab. We describe surfaces with...
متن کاملEnhancement of Water Evaporation on Solid Surfaces with Nanoscale Hydrophobic-Hydrophilic Patterns.
Using molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the evaporation of nanoscale water on hydrophobic-hydrophilic patterned surfaces is unexpectedly faster than that on any surfaces with uniform wettability. The key to this phenomenon is that, on the patterned surface, the evaporation rate from the hydrophilic region only slightly decreases due to the correspondingly increased water thickness; m...
