  • Studies on fluid slippage by LICP shed light on regulation of fluid flow

    20-01-2015

    The regulation of fluid flow is very important for the design of smart microfluidic and biofluidic devices. The study by the group headed by Prof. ZHOU Feng at the State Key Laboratory of Solid Lubrication of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) on fluid slippage sheds light on the regulation ...

  • New materials developed by LICP show potential in oil-water separation

    29-12-2014

    Porous materials such as sponges, textiles, and metal meshes are good candidates for oil–water separation, due to their large pore volume, flexibility, and commercial availability. However, these materials suffer from large coincident water absorption along with the oil. To mitigate this problem, various research groups have tried to establish ...

  • LICP develops new method to improve tribological behavior of PTFE/Nomex fabric/phenolic composite

    26-12-2014

    Owning to its outstanding self-lubricating property and high strength of the made polymer composites, hybrid PTFE/Nomex fabric is widely used. However, the inertness of Nomex fiber and PTFE fiber surface hinders the tight adhesion between fabric and adhesive resin, which influences the antiwear performances of the hybrid PTFE/Nomex fabric/ polym...

  • Progress on Tribological Behavior of Polyimide Under Harsh Conditions Made by LICP

    10-12-2014

    As one of the most common engineering materials, polyimides and polyimide composites presenting with excellent advantages, such as mechanical properties, low coefficient of linear expansion and cost-effectiveness, occupy a considerable market share nowadays. However, polymers are vulnerable to be influenced by harsh environment, which will affec...

  • LICP Develops Stimuli-Responsive Composite Particles as Solid-Stabilizers for Effective Oil Harvesting

    28-11-2014

    With the increasing industrial oily waste water and the frequent oil spill accidents, advanced materials or techniques that can effectively separate oil and water have attracted extensive attention in recent years. The core?shell structured particles show flexible features in oil/water separation. For example, the magnetic nanoparticles with su...
