Preparation of superhydrophobic paper mulch and study on its anti-UV performance
Journal of Saudi Chemical Society, 2021 In order to improve the shortcomings of paper mulch, such as the low water resistance and weather fastness in practical application, the paper mulch with a superhydrophobic structure was prepared by depositing zinc oxide layer and silicon dioxide layer ...

Influence of the Static Contact Angle on the Liquid Film Coverage for Falling-Film Systems
Flow, Turbulence and Combustion, 2022 Abstract The coverage of the liquid film over the horizontal tubes, particularly the wetting ratio, is important for gravity-driven evaporators and absorbers to achieve a better heat transfer mechanism. A 2D, two-phase CFD model was developed to examine the falling-film hydrodynamics and transient flow mechanism for Reynolds numbers ranging ...

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Numerical investigation of boiling [PDF]
, 2012 In this work, we study different phenomena that occur during nucleate boiling. We numerically investigate boiling using two phase flow direct numerical simulation based on a level set / Ghost Fluid method.

Wettability versus roughness of engineering surfaces [PDF]
, 2011 Wetting of real engineering surfaces occurs in many industrial applications (liquid coating, lubrication, printing, painting, ...). Forced and natural wetting can be beneficial in many cases, providing lubrication and therefore reducing friction and wear.

Observation of contact angle hysteresis due to inhomogeneous electric fields
Communications Physics, 2021 Wetting of surfaces can be affected by surface roughness, presence of surface chemical defects, or by electric fields. Here, the authors perform electrowetting experiments on microstriped electrodes and show that the droplet’s static contact angle ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...
