A hollow fiber membrane probe for the measurement of the hydrogen concentration in a liquid [PDF]
A new method is introduced to measure the hydrogen concentration in liquids by applying a polyethersulfone hollow fiber membrane as a probe. Hydrogen rapidly diffuses through the fiber wall after which it is carried to a thermal conductivity detector by ...

Emulsification of Silicone Oil and Eye Movements [PDF]
Emulsification is an inherent problem of silicone oil used in vitreoretinal surgery. It has been shown that silicone oil can be made more resistant to emulsification and easier to inject by adding high-molecular-weight components (5% or 10% 423-kDa polydimethylsiloxane [PDMS]) to normal 1000 mPa · s silicone oil. The authors hypothesize that this might

Thermal Processing Creates Water‐Stable PEDOT:PSS Films for Bioelectronics
Instead of using chemical cross–linkers, it is shown that PEDOT:PSS thin films for bioelectronics become water‐stable after a simple heat treatment. The heat treatment is compatible with a range of rigid and elastomeric substrates and films are stable in vivo for >20 days.

Investigation of slippery behaviour of lubricating fluid coated smooth hydrophilic surfaces [PDF]
In the recent years many research groups have studied slippery properties on lubricating fluid infused rough surfaces using hydrophobic substrates. These surfaces show excellent slippery behaviour for water and other liquids. Here we demonstrate a simple method to fabricate stable slippery surfaces based on silicone oil coated hydrophilic samples.

Pickering emulsions with alpha-cyclodextrin inclusions: Structure and thermal stability [PDF]
This paper explores structural, interfacial and thermal properties of two types of Pickering emulsions containing alpha-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes: on one hand, emulsions were obtained between aqueous solutions of alpha-cyclodextrin and different oils (fatty acids, olive oil, silicone oil) and on the other hand, emulsions were obtained between ...

Quantification and Physics of Cold Plasma Treatment of Organic Liquid Surfaces [PDF]
Plasma treatment increases the surface energy of condensed phases: solids and liquids. Two independent methods of the quantification of the influence imposed by a cold radiofrequency air plasma treatment on the surface properties of silicone oils (polydimethylsiloxane) of various molecular masses and castor oil are introduced.
