Measuring Molecular Forces With Atomic Force Microscopy 1: Solvent Influence on Hydrophobic Interactions. [PDF]
Microsc Res TechAtomic force microscopy enables precise evaluation of the magnitude and range of hydrophobic and van der Waals interactions. This primer presents a protocol for fluorocarbon functionalization of gold surfaces and examines how water: DMSO mixtures affect hydrophobic forces, with data interpreted through an extended van der Waals model.

Nano-scale superhydrophobicity: suppression of protein adsorption and promotion of flow-induced detachment [PDF]
, 2008 Wall adsorption is a common problem in microfluidic devices, particularly when proteins are used. Here we show how superhydrophobic surfaces can be used to reduce protein adsorption and to promote desorption.

Fabrication and Surface Interactions of Super-Hydrophobic Silicon Carbide for Membrane Distillation
Nanomaterials, 2019 Hydrophilic silicon carbide was modified by surface deposition of a super-hydrophobic coating that is based on perfluorosilanes. The modification was proven to yield membrane surfaces with contact angles that were higher than 145° and to be stable ...
