Triboelectric electrification is a common phenomenon in interfacial friction , in which electrons are continuously transferred , excited , and flowed between two surfaces .Most of the current research on the relationship between triboelectrification and friction force is based on contact resistance ( friction between metal and metal ) , surface ...
Low surface energy coating materials have crucial application prospects in fluid drag reduction , anti-fouling , self-cleaning , and anti-icing due to their unique wettability .The mechanical wear resistance of coating surface was greatly improved , and surface wettability was almost unchanged after 30000 friction cycles under 100 KPa . In addit...
Chinese researchers recently demonstrated an innovative chemical method for engineering diverse layered hydrogels with wet and slippery features at room temperature .Layered hydrogel structures with wet and slippery features that are suitable for a wide range of applications including tissue-like models , soft robots and intelligent devices .” ...
Directional transportation of objects ( liquids and solids ) has crucial applications from energy transfer , intelligent robots to biomedical devices , which has become a frontier for research .Realizing directional solid transportation under a confined pressure environment requires a strong mechanical driving force to overcome the rising interf...
Deep eutectic solvents ( DESs ) are an emerging class of solvents usually formed by hydrogen bond donors ( HBDs ) and hydrogen bond acceptors ( HBAs ) at a fixed molar ratio .Based on the above principle , the researchers synthesized Cu2 ( OH ) 3NO3 nanosheets at room temperature by adding Cu ( NO3 ) 2 to these DESs . The material shows oxidase-...
