The rose petal effect and the modes of superhydrophobicity.
The wetting of rough surfaces remains a subject of active investigation by scientists. The contact angle (CA) is a traditional parameter used to characterize the hydrophobicity/philicity of a solid surface. However, it was found recently that high CAs can coexist with strong adhesion between water and a solid surface in the case of the so-called 'rose petal effect'. Several additional parameter...
متن کاملAmplification of protein adsorption on micro/nanostructures for microarray applications
The fabrication and operation of biodevices require the accurate control of the concentration of the bioactive molecules on the surface, as well as the preservation of their bioactivity, in particular proteins that have a significant propensity for surface-induced denaturation. A method that allows the adsorption of proteins on ‘combinatorial’ micro/nano-surfaces fabricated via laser ablation o...
متن کاملAnti-icing superhydrophobic coatings.
We use nanoparticle-polymer composites to demonstrate the anti-icing capability of superhydrophobic surfaces and report direct experimental evidence that such surfaces are able to prevent ice formation upon impact of supercooled water both in laboratory conditions and in natural environments. We find that the anti-icing capability of these composites depends not only on their superhydrophobicit...
متن کاملStudy the effect of nano Al2O3 and nano graphene ceramic additives on the aircraft anti-icing/de-icing fluids
In the present study, the effect of nano Al2O3 and nano graphene ceramic additives in optimizing performance and improving thermophysical properties of aircraft anti-icing/de-icing fluids was investigated. Nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, SEM and XRD methods. The thermal conductivity, surface tension and dynamic viscosity of the hybrid nanofluids were experimentally assessed for tempera...
