Spouted bed drying parameters and adjuvant effects on polyphenol retention and antioxidant activity in mango peel powders

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Spouted bed drying of mango peels with colloidal SiO2 and corn starch produces a free‐flowing powder with reduced agglomeration, increased drying yield, and preserved antioxidant and polyphenol content. Abstract The production of polyphenol‐rich powders is a promising strategy for valorizing agro‐industrial byproducts. This study evaluated drying yield,

Manipulating drying‐induced carbon nanotube assemblies through substrate surface engineering

Droplet, EarlyView.
During the observation of CNT droplet drying on modified substrates with varying surface properties, high‐friction surfaces induced long‐range orientation of CNTs through fixed contact lines and material flow during evaporation. This provides a programmable substrate strategy for assembling ordered nanostructures via controlled droplet drying ...
