Imagine printing your next meal like a document: layer by layer, perfectly shaped, and with the benefit of custom nutrition ...
University of Pennsylvania researchers accidentally stumbled onto a novel material that can pull water from the air without requiring external energy.   While testing a mix of hydrophilic nanopores ...
Inspired Purifier (WHIP) offers a novel, sustainable solution for water purification, effectively degrading pollutants using ...
The paper is published in Small Structures. The new surface integrates short hydrophobic nanowires and hydrophilic microchannels in a structured pattern.
The sbPA membrane formed a phase-separated structure, with the hydrophobic regions comprising phenylene groups and alkylene spacers in the polymer side chains and the hydrophilic regions comprising ...
While AMPs are also hydrophobic, they are often amphipathic, with both hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions that allow them to target cell membranes and cause them to rupture similarly to how ...
Researchers tested how different materials interact with airborne water, forming Janus crystals. These crystals possess distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions on their surfaces.
Weissmann, M., Baranton, S., Clacens, J. and Coutanceau, C. (2010) Modification of Hydrophobic/Hydrophilic Properties of Vulcan XC72 Carbon Powder by Grafting of Trifluoromethylphenyl and ...
This process introduced numerous hydrophilic sites. They then selectively modified some of these sites with a hydrophobic compound, octadecylamine (ODA), creating a carefully controlled pattern of ...
The combination of 3D AFM images and molecular dynamics simulations reveals that next to a hydrophobic silica surface, there is a 1.2 nm region characterized by a very low density of water. In ...
The salt promotes interaction between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions of the protein and the medium by reducing the solvation of sample molecules and exposing their hydrophobic regions.
