Evaporation of a drop, though a simple everyday observation, provides a fascinating subject
for study. Various issues interact here, such as dynamics of the contact line, evaporation …

Process-directed self-assembly refers to processes that reproducibly trap the kinetics of
structure formation that ensues after a sudden change (“quench”) of the thermodynamic …

This review is devoted to the simple process of drying a multicomponent droplet of a
complex fluid which may contain salt or other inclusions. These processes provide a …

We study the formation of a glassy skin at the air interface of drying polymer solutions. We
introduce a simple approximation, which is valid for most diffusion problems, and which …

The thinning of a cylinder of a polymer solution in a volatile solvent is argued to be
controlled by solvent diffusion through a dense polymer layer at the cylinder surface. This …

Low-cost and large-scale production techniques for flexible electronics have evolved greatly
in recent years, having great impact in applications such as wearable technology and the …

Thin polymer coatings covering on porous substrates are a common composite structure
required in numerous applications, including membrane separation, and there is a strong …

Sulfuric acid is a highly hygroscopic substance, increasing its volume by absorbing water
from a high relative-humidity environment. In this paper, we present a mathematical model …

Our extensive study based on optoelectronic and electric measurements (which consisted
of: UV–Vis absorption, photoluminescence, surface photovoltage measurement, charge …

Frontal photopolymerisation (FPP) is a directional solidification process that converts
monomer-rich liquid into crosslinked polymer solid by light exposure and finds applications …
