Effects of hydrophobicity on splash erosion of model soil particles by a single water drop impact [PDF]
, 2013 Raindrop impact can be a major contributor to particle mobilization for soils and other granular materials. In previous work, water repellent soils, comprised of hydrophobic particles, have been shown to exhibit greater splash erosion losses under ...

Enzyme Catalyzed Copolymerization of Lignosulfonates for Hydrophobic Coatings
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Enzymatic polymerization of lignin can generate a variety of value-added products concomitantly replacing fossil-based resources. In line with this approach, a laccase from the thermophilic fungus Myceliophthora thermophila (MtL) was used to couple a ...

Study on hydrophobicity loss of the gas diffusion layer in PEMFCs by electrochemical oxidation [PDF]
, 2014 The hydrophobicity loss of the gas diffusion layer (GDL) in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) was investigated by an accelerated stress test of electrochemical oxidation at a constant potential.

HYDROPHOBIC IMPREGNATION OF GEOPOLYMER COMPOSITE BY ETHOXYSILANES
Acta Polytechnica, 2018 A geopolymer composite was impregnated by incorporating the hydrophobic alkyl group on the outer surface and in the inner structure of the geopolymer. Ethoxysilanes 1H,1H,2H,2H perfluoroctyltriethoxysilane and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane were used as the ...

Hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity study of catalyst layers in proton exchange membrane fuel cells [PDF]
, 2006 The catalyst layer is one of the key components of PEMFCs. As the electrochemical reaction occurs at the three-phase interface of the catalyst layer, it is necessary to investigate the hydrophobicity and/or hydrophilicity properties of catalyst layers ...

Applications of three-dimensional carbon nanotube networks
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2015 In this paper, we show that it is possible to synthesize carbon-based three-dimensional networks by adding sulfur, as growth enhancer, during the synthesis process. The obtained material is self-supporting and consists of curved and interconnected carbon

Protein 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.

Impact of Surface Hydrophobicity and Salinity on the Adsorption of Humic Acids [PDF]
, 2019 The adsorption of humic acids on thiol-functionalized gold surfaces with varying hydrophobicity under different solution conditions, was investigated by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) and contact angle measurements.
