Surface of a particle is inevitably charged. When the particle is surrounded by a fluid a
potential difference arises between the surface and bulk, called zeta potential (ζ) which …

Surfactants, whose existence has been recognized as early as 2800 BC, have had a long
history with the development of human civilization. With the rapid development of …

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are cutting-edge technology that converts mechanical
energy into electrical energy through contact electrification (CE). The CE process involves …

Abstract Contact-electro-catalysis (CEC) has been proposed as an efficient mechanism for
organic pollutant degradation. However, the effects of chemical and physical properties of …

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) have emerged as suitable devices that are suitable to
harvest widely abundant and renewable blue energy. However, a major drawback in related …

Fluid‐bicontinuous gels are unique materials that allow two distinct fluids to interact through
a percolating, rigid scaffold. Current restrictions for their use are the large fluid‐channel …

Nanoparticles form the fundamental building blocks for many exciting applications in various
scientific disciplines due to its unique features such as large surface to mass ratio, targeting …

Slippery surfaces, which originate in nature with special wettability, have attracted
considerable attention in both fundamental research and practical applications in a variety of …

A high-performance flexible conductive material based on cheap carboxymethyl chitosan
(CMCS) and carboxylated styrene-butadiene rubber (XSBR) was fabricated via latex film …

Slippery lubricant-infused porous surfaces (SLIPs) are effective in repelling low-surface
tension fluids given their omniphobicity, anti-adhesive, and drag reduction properties …
