Interfacial Phenomena in Fe-TiC Systems and the Effect of Cr and Ni

open access: yesHigh Temperature Materials and Processes, 2012
Titanium carbide is used as reinforcement component in composites due to its stability, hardness and wear resistance. A potential application is local reinforcement of stainless steel castings in which TiC is added only to the surfaces, which acquire ...

Enhanced Herbicidal Action of Clopyralid in the Form of a Supramolecular Complex with a Gemini Surfactant

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Surfactants are often added to herbicidal formulations to improve the delivery of the herbicide into plants. In this study a new herbicidal formulation was formed based on the clopyralid with 0.01% gemini surfactant hexanediyl-1,6-bis ...

Wettability and Spreading Behavior of Sn–Ti Alloys on Si3N4

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate the wetting behavior and interfacial reactions of Sn-Ti alloys, which has been widely applied to join ceramics with metals, on Si3N4 substrates. The isothermal wetting process of Sn-xTi alloys (x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.

Surface energetics and structure of the Ge wetting layer on Si(100) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Ge deposited on Si(100) initially forms heteroepitaxial layers, which grow to a critical thickness of ~3 MLs before the appearance of three-dimensional strain relieving structures.

Dendritic Pattern Formation and Contact Line Forces during Dewetting of Dilute Polymer Solutions on a Hydrophobic Surface

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2022
The micro-scale morphology of the receding contact line of dilute polyethylene oxide solution drops (c ∼ 100 ppm) after impact and inertial spreading on a fluorinated hydrophobic surface is investigated.

Wetting Transitions Displayed by Persistent Active Particles

open access: yes, 2017
A lattice model for active matter is studied numerically, showing that it displays wettings transitions between three distinctive phases when in contact with an impenetrable wall. The particles in the model move persistently, tumbling with a small rate $\

Site‐Specific Wetting of Iron Nanocubes by Gold Atoms in Gas‐Phase Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2019
A key challenge in nanotechnology is the rational design of multicomponent materials that beat the properties of their elemental counterparts. At the same time, when considering the material composition of such hybrid nanostructures and the fabrication ...
