Environmentally Responsive Block Copolymers as Anti-biofouling Surfaces
Biofouling of ship-hulls is a problem of significant economic and environmental consequences. The accumulation of ‘slimes’ of microorganisms such as bacteria, green algae and diatoms, followed by the attachment of macroorganisms such as hydroids, sponges and barnacles, causes increased frictional drag on ships, higher consumption of fuel, and greater emission of greenhouse gases [1]. That marin...
متن کاملLiquid-infused structured surfaces with exceptional anti-biofouling performance.
Bacteria primarily exist in robust, surface-associated communities known as biofilms, ubiquitous in both natural and anthropogenic environments. Mature biofilms resist a wide range of antimicrobial treatments and pose persistent pathogenic threats. Treatment of adherent biofilm is difficult, costly, and, in medical systems such as catheters or implants, frequently impossible. At the same time, ...
متن کاملBioinspired surfaces with dynamic topography for active control of biofouling.
Dynamic change of the surface area and topology of elastomers is used as a general, environmentally friendly approach for effectively detaching micro- and macro-fouling organisms adhered on the elastomer surfaces. Deformation of elastomer surfaces under electrical or pneumatic actuation can debond various biofilms and barnacles. The bio-inspired dynamic surfaces can be fabricated over large are...
متن کاملInvestigation the Milling Strategies Effects on Machining of Convex Surfaces made of Glass/Epoxy Composite
In this study the effects of machining parameters such as shearing speed, feed rate, tool diameter and machining depth on different milling strategies i.e. 3D offset, spiral, raster and radial to produce the convex surface made of epoxy/glass composites is investigated. The effects of mentioned strategies on output parameters such as surface roughness and milling removal rate is also studied. T...
متن کاملFunctional superhydrophobic surfaces made of Janus micropillars
We demonstrate the fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces consisting of micropillars with hydrophobic sidewalls and hydrophilic tops, referred to as Janus micropillars. Therefore we first coat a micropillar array with a mono- or bilayer of polymeric particles, and merge the particles together to shield the top faces while hydrophobizing the walls. After removing the polymer film, the top face...
