In this paper we present a literature review on the role of surface-active components in
emulsions and foams. Models are presently unable to accurately predict scenarios involving …

Improving boiling is challenging due to the unpredictable nature of bubbles. One way to
enhance boiling is with surfactants, which alter the solid–liquid and liquid–vapor interfaces …

In this study, we conduct pool boiling experiments on pure copper and bi-conductive
surfaces using sodium dodecyl sulfate as the surfactant and focus on the bubble behaviors …

The review discusses the development of a quantum chemical approach for calculating the
thermodynamic clusterization parameters of surfactants at the air/water interface. It …

Superhydrophobic surfaces have great potential for various applications owing to their
superior dewetting and mobility of water droplets. However, the physical robustness of …

Surfactants have been widely used in various industrial fields. Simply adding a small
amount of surfactant can greatly enhance the boiling heat transfer of water, which can …

All the higher‐level phenomena in the study of life are holistic, and thereby usually Janus‐
faced (where higher‐level phenomena affect lower levels, and vice versa), causing an …

In our latest communication, we proved experimentally that the ionic surfactant's surface
excess is exclusively determined by the size of the hydrated counterion.[Lunkenheimer …

There is substantial motivation to develop novel adhesives which take advantage of the
superior adhesive strength and adaptability of many natural animal adhesives; however, the …

Boiling is a prevalent phase-change process that plays a vital role in facilitating efficient heat
transfer from a heating surface. While this heat transfer mechanism is generally effective, a …
