Functionalisation of the Aluminium Surface by CuCl₂ Chemical Etching and Perfluoro Silane Grafting: Enhanced Corrosion Protection and Improved Anti-Icing Behaviour

Metals
This study aimed to prepare a facile hierarchical aluminium surface using a two-step process consisting of chemical etching in selected concentrations of CuCl2 solution and surface grafting through immersion in an ethanol solution containing 1H, 1H, 2H ...

Linking micellar structures to hydrogelation for salt-triggered dipeptide gelators [PDF]

, 2016
Some functionalised dipeptides can form hydrogels when salts are added to solutions at high pH. We have used surface tension, conductivity, rheology, optical, confocal and scanning electron microscopy, 1H NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopy measurements to ...

Langmuir Films of Normal-Alkanes on the Surface of Liquid Mercury [PDF]

, 2013
The coverage dependent phase behavior of molecular films of n-alkanes (\(CH_{3}CH_{n−2}CH_3\), denote Cn) on mercury was studied for lengths 10 \(\leq\) n \(\leq\) 50, using surface tensiometry and surface x-ray diffraction methods.

Strong deformation of ferrofluid-filled elastic alginate capsules in inhomogenous magnetic fields

, 2018
We present a new system based on alginate gels for the encapsulation of a ferrofluid drop, which allows us to create millimeter-sized elastic capsules that are highly deformable by inhomogeneous magnetic fields.

Textile Encoding Inspired by Langer Lines via Elastically Graded Embroidered Tessellations

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 37, September 18, 2025.
A standard embroidery machine can encode skin‐like directional mechanics into stretchable fabrics that, when worn, augment the wearer's skin. Zigzag stitch patterns, inspired by skin collagen structure, pack extra slack in threads that, when tessellated, mimic Langer lines.

Forced desorption of nanoparticles from an oil-water interface. [PDF]

, 2012
While nanoparticle adsorption to fluid interfaces has been studied from a fundamental standpoint and exploited in application, the reverse process, that is, desorption and disassembly, remains relatively unexplored.

Reversible Phase Transitions of Anionic and Cationic Surfactant Mixtures Drive Shape Morphing Droplets

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 37, September 18, 2025.
A light‐controlled, reversible phase transition of ionic surfactant assemblies, coupled with dynamic partitioning between bulk phases and interfaces, induces rapid, and order‐of‐magnitude changes in oil–water interfacial tension. Surpassing the capabilities of conventional stimuli‐responsive surfactants, this transient, collaborative mechanism enables ...
