ON USING EXCESS GIBBS ENERGY AS AN INDICATOR OF HYDROPHOBICITY IN THE FLOTATION PROCESS [PDF]
. It has been shown that the partial molar excess Gibbs energy (G̅ex) can be used as an indicator of hydrophobicity and hence contributes to explaining the behaviour of collectors in the recovery of minerals by flotation.

Comparison of hydrophobicity scales for predicting biophysical properties of antibodies
While antibody-based therapeutics have grown to be one of the major classes of novel medicines, some antibody development candidates face significant challenges regarding expression levels, solubility, as well as stability and aggregation, under ...

Enhancing hydrophobicity, strength and UV shielding capacity of starch film via novel co-cross-linking in neutral conditions [PDF]
Starch films are developed as the biodegradable packaging materials to replace the petroleum-based materials in recent years. Thus, it is extremely beneficial to improve the hydrophobicity and mechanical strength of starch films, through a novel approach

Skin hydrophobicity as an adaptation for self‐cleaning in geckos
Hydrophobicity is common in plants and animals, typically caused by high relief microtexture functioning to keep the surface clean. Although the occurrence and physical causes of hydrophobicity are well understood, ecological factors promoting its ...
