Recent Strategies Toward Durable and Ion‐Tolerant Transition Metal‐Based Electrocatalysts in Seawater Electrolysis

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Recent strategies address these challenges through ion‐specific regulation, encompassing chloride‐tolerant and chloride‐regulating anodes together with cathode designs that suppress OH− accumulation and Mg2+/Ca2+ coupling. This ion‐management‐oriented framework provides general guidelines for achieving stable, selective, and scalable seawater ...

Comparative assessment of volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) multiphase solvers for viscoplastic flow over grooved patterned surfaces

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurately simulating multiphase flows at low capillary numbers remains challenging due to spurious currents and interface discretization errors. We present a systematic comparison of four volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) solvers within the OpenFOAM framework for pressure‐driven Poiseuille–Bingham flow over grooved surfaces: interFoam with classical ...

3D printing of fluorine‐free omniphobic surfaces

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Our work demonstrates that the simple and inexpensive digital light processing three‐dimensional printing can be used to fabricate micropillar arrays with doubly reentrant and triply reentrant features. The printed fluorine‐free surfaces display omniphobicity and resist the wetting of liquids with a wide range of surface tensions.

Photothermal bubble: Dynamics, manipulation, and applications

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
As a versatile platform for bubble manipulation, photothermal techniques empower diverse operations: planar translation by scanning the laser spot, sustained periodic bouncing from competing thermal and hydrodynamic flows, and even guided 3D trajectories achieved by tailoring the heating configuration.
