Molecular origin of slippery behaviour in tethered liquid layers
Fabio Rasera, Isaac J. Gresham, Antonio Tinti +2
Slippery covalently attached liquid surfaces (SCALS) are a family of nanothin polymer layers with remarkably low static droplet friction, characterised by a low contact angle hyste…

Local grafting heterogeneities control water intrusion and extrusion in nanopores
Sonia Cambiaso, Fabio Rasera, Antonio Tinti +4
Hydrophobic nanoporous materials can be intruded by water only by exerting an external action, typically increasing pressure. For some materials, water extrudes when the pressure i…

The surface tension of Martini 3 water mixtures
Lorenzo Iannetti, Sonia Cambiaso, Fabio Rasera +4
The Martini model, a coarse-grained forcefield for biomolecular simulations, has experienced a vast increase in popularity in the past decade. Its building-block approach balances…
