Powder coating is now preferred over liquid coating and has also been extensively employed in numerous industries due to its negligible VOC (volatile organic compound) emission, high solid content, ...

Powder coatings, substances that are decorative, protective, or both, are developed by applying a coating powder to a substrate and then fusing the coating into a continuous film by applying heat or ...

The fluid-handling bioprocessing surfaces that successfully repel microliter droplets aren’t as effective for nano- and picoliter droplets. Because those smaller droplets are more sensitive to ...

A novel study demonstrates that droplets at a miniscule level can be precisely controlled, opening new avenues in micro-scale systems. (Nanowerk News) Scientists from the Research Center for Materials ...

The structure of the new nanomaterial was designed to mimic the surface of rose petals, which cause water to bead up into droplets. Researchers at the University of Sydney have developed a new ...

If you've ever spilled a drop of coffee on a surface, you might have noticed the curious way the color concentrates at the edges when the coffee dries. This is known as the "coffee ring effect," and ...

Researchers used liquid gallium to create an antiviral and antimicrobial coating and tested it on a range of fabrics, including face masks. The coating adhered more strongly to fabric than some ...
