Durable, ultrathin, and antifouling polymer brush coating for efficient condensation heat transfer
Shuai Li, Cheuk Wing Edmond Lam, Matteo Donati +9
Heat exchangers are made of metals because of their high heat conductivity and mechanical stability. Metal surfaces are inherently hydrophilic, leading to inefficient filmwise cond…
Experimental Study of Condensation of Water on Polydimethylsiloxane-Coated Copper Surfaces
Till Pfeiffer, Shuai Li, Michael Kappl +3
Modification of surfaces to enable dropwise condensation is a promising approach for achieving high condensation rates. In this work, we present an experimental study on condensati…
How charges separate when surfaces are dewetted
Aaron D. Ratschow, Lisa S. Bauer, Pravash Bista +3
Charge separation at moving three-phase contact lines is observed in nature as well as technological processes. Despite the growing number of experimental investigations in recent…
Surface charge deposition by moving drops reduces contact angles
Xiaomei Li, Aaron D. Ratschow, Steffen Hardt +1
Slide electrification - the spontaneous charge separation by sliding water drops - can lead to an electrostatic potential of 1 kV and change drop motion substantially. To find out,…
