Hydrophilic and hydrophobic TiO2 coatings by pulsed electrophoretic deposition [PDF]

open access: yesProcessing and Application of Ceramics, 2022
Hydrophobic and hydrophilic coatings have been widely studied because of their functions such as anticorrosion and self-cleaning. In this study two different TiO2 suspensions, obtained by dispersing of hydrophilic and hydrophobic TiO2 particles in ...

Dissecting hydrophobicity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
The perceived phobia (fear) of some apolar substances for aqueous (hydro) environments does not imply lack of attraction to water. Rather, it originates from the strength of this attraction, which, similar to that between the constituents of apolar substances, is smaller than the force between water molecules.

Hydrophobicity regained [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 1997
AbstractA widespread practice is to use free energies of transfer between organic solvents and water (ΔGtransfer°) to define hydrophobicity scales for the amino acid side chains. A comparison of four ΔGtransfer° scales reveals that the values for hydrogen‐bonding side chains are highly dependent on the non‐aqueous environment.

Tapping the Role of Microbial Biosurfactants in Pesticide Remediation: An Eco-Friendly Approach for Environmental Sustainability

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Pesticides are used indiscriminately all over the world to protect crops from pests and pathogens. If they are used in excess, they contaminate the soil and water bodies and negatively affect human health and the environment.

Liposoluble quinone promotes the reduction of hydrophobic mineral and extracellular electron transfer of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1

open access: yesThe Innovation, 2021
Summary: A large number of reaction systems are composed of hydrophobic interfaces and microorganisms in natural environment. However, it is not clear how microorganisms adjust their breathing patterns and respond to hydrophobic interfaces.
