Triblock Polymer Engineering Enables Hydration‐Rich, High‐Performance, Fouling‐Resistant Interfaces
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 36, 4 May 2026.A molecularly engineered triblock polymer (PHZ) rapidly reorganizes into a hydration‐rich interfacial layer on diverse surfaces, strongly suppressing hydrophobic attraction and fouling. The triblock polymer provides robust energy and steric barriers to oily foulants, enabling high‐performance antifouling at ultralow dosage.

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1727-1742, April 2026.Supercritical water deasphalting. Abstract The removal of sulphur from heavy fuel oil (HFO) is essential to address environmental concerns and comply with the stringent regulations imposed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2020. Previously, the acceptable limit for sulphur was 3.5 wt.%, but it was recently changed to 0.5 wt.%.

Bitumen Emulsion—Mineral Surface Interactions: An NMR Study on the Interface Layer Composition
Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 170-178, February 2026.We describe a 1H NMR approach to study the interface layer formed by a specified bitumen emulsion in the presence of non‐magnetic as well as magnetic minerals. This approach is based on the consecutive flushing off “bulky” components of the bitumen emulsion and the following extraction of the surface layer material, which can then be analyzed by NMR ...
