Exemplary membranes, liquid compositions, and methods of the invention involve the use of a hydrophobic acrylic polymer and at least one water-soluble polymer (e.g., PVOH) for providing a water vapor permeable air barrier on construction surfaces. Unlike prior art vapor barriers, the present ...
However, such a configuration whereby air is trapped between the droplet and surface is only metastable state and, via applied pressure or surface vibration, the liquid will eventually penetrate into the roughness and fully wet the surface. An alternate method of creating liquid-repellent surfaces ...
Using the Poseidon AX system, an electrochemical bias can be applied in a three electrode set-up to any system. In this case, a CuSO4solution was observed growing dendrites using cyclic voltammetry. Click here to download an overview on electrocatalysts using Poseidon AX ...
Full size image Looking back on the condensation process, we know that condensation occurs simultaneously in the areas “in” and “out” (Fig.1band Suppl. Movie1). This suggests that the nucleation-free energy barrier of water condensation remains unchanged after water contact induction because o...
In addition, the Ga-based LM carries rather high thermal conductivity compared with water (Table 1), which is the main reason why the LM has been applied in thermal management.18 Excellent fluidity is another striking property of LM (Figure 1B), which largely arises from the low bulk ...

Herein, we report a new impermeable flexible liquid barrier film using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and partially reduced graphene oxide (PrGO), which dramatically enhances the lifetime of Ag metal electrodes (typically used in DSSCs) immersed in a highly acidic iodolyte solution. The Ag metal ...
A barrier layer which is selected such that it is air permeable but liquid-proof, is applied to at least the ... E Plaatje,M Hahn,A Steger 被引量: 15发表: 2006年 Air-permeable liquid-tight barrier structures and products obtainable therefrom The present invention provides an air permeable,...
10. They might be explained by temporary vapor films covering the heating zone at the bottom and thus acting as an insulating barrier, see Fig. 9. The vapor film is metastable (Rayleigh–Taylor-like behavior) and quickly disappears. With progress in time, the breakdowns disappear even for ...
