McNamee and Kawakami were able to determine that: The adsorption of the surfactants to the particles can change when the liquid flow changes the forces between charged particles.

Nanoparticles—the tiniest building blocks of our world—are constantly in motion, bouncing, shifting, and drifting in ...

The spreading of mixable liquids into 'droplet hats' was observed for the first time, which could lead to insight into improving strategies for cleaning animals affected by oil spills.

Mimicking this system, the researchers coated air filters with a thin film of oil between 200 to 500 nanometers thick. This ...

One of the problems of conventional filters used in homes, businesses and public spaces is their poor performance. They rely ...

The most common approach to carbon capture uses liquid amine solutions, which can absorb CO 2 from the atmosphere. On a large scale, the system uses two columns, one for capturing CO 2 and the ...

Membranes allowing transfer of a gas between a liquid and gas layer have applications in areas such as blood oxygenation and carbon dioxide capture. Here, a super liquid repellent membrane is ...

They coat filters with a liquid layer, a combination that captures more particles and holds them tighter than traditional bare filters, even when the air blows the other way (Nature 2025, DOI: 10. ...

In liquids, the particles are touching but are free to move around each other like balls in a ball pool. ... many more states of matter out there that it doesn’t capture.
