Modification of raindrop size distribution due to seeder–feeder interactions between stratiform precipitation and shallow convection observed by X‐band polarimetric radar and optical disdrometer

Atmospheric Science Letters, 2021
The seeder–feeder interactions (SFIs), where raindrops from upper clouds grow by accreting cloud droplets in the lower clouds, have been extensively studied.

Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts for Acidic‐Media CO2 Electrolyzers

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Acidic‐media CO2 electroreduction (CO2R) could decarbonize chemical production, despite relying on rare‐earth elements for anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Transferring the learnings from mature sister technologies (water electrolysis) could accelerate technological development.

Humid‐Air Condensation Heat Transfer on Hierarchical Structured Superhydrophobic Graphite Composites

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Humid‐air condensation on graphite composites shows that making a surface superhydrophobic is not sufficient to enhance heat transfer. A hierarchical CuO/lauric‐acid coating yields spherical droplets but promotes Wenzel‐type pinning and adds effective thermal resistance under operation.

Influence of the Substrate Temperature on the Growth Mechanism of Allylamine Plasma Polymer Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The influence of the substrate temperature on the growth mechanism of allylamine plasma polymers is investigated by correlating the plasma chemistry and the physico‐chemical properties of the coatings. New insights about the mechanistic formation of functionalized plasma polymers at a molecular level are provided, paving the way toward a better ...

Understanding Operando Water Management in Hydroxide‐Exchange‐Membrane Fuel Cells

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Effective water management is vital for high‐performance hydroxide‐exchange‐membrane fuel cells. Using a custom water‐flux station, this study quantifies how membrane thickness, microporous layers, and operating conditions dictate internal water transport.
