WHEN barium stearate or other hydrophobia powders are exposed to blood plasma they remove certain coagulation factors such as factor V 1 and fibrinogen 2, and their surface becomes hydrophilic.

Researchers at NYU have developed Janus crystals, inspired by desert plants and animals, to convert air into water without ...

The hydrophilic nature of these surfaces can reduce protein adsorption and bacterial adhesion, improving biocompatibility and preventing device-associated infections. Superhydrophilic materials can be ...

According to its developers, however, JCM can achieve oil and water recoveries of up to 97% and 75%, respectively, with ...

Researchers have developed a new crystalline material that can harvest water from fog without any energy input. The design of the novel type of smart crystals, which the researchers named Janus ...

A team of researchers from Jilin University, NYU Abu Dhabi's Smart Materials Lab, and the Center for Smart Engineering ...

Researchers have developed Janus crystals, which collect water from fog without energy input. Inspired by desert plants and ...
