The conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable chemical products via the electrochemical CO2 conversion reaction could ...

The structural color coating does not fade away like the conventional paints and exhibits self-cleaning properties. This was achieved by using hydrophobic melanin particles which provide structural ...

Highlighting the study's unique findings, Ms. Maejima, the first author, states, "We discovered that super-hydrophobic structural color coatings can be achieved by combining the hydrophobicity of ...

Hydrophobic coatings aren’t new, but they’re not typically used against urination. The coating is essentially a thin layer that repels water by forming an almost imperceptibly thin layer that ...

They used carbon quantum dots (CQDs) as a solvent to improve the dispersibility of hydrophobic coatings like tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS). The CQD ...

Their findings were presented in “High performance double layer hydrophobic antireflective coatings on glass prepared by sol–gel method,” published in Open Ceramics. The research was carried ...

According to him, there are pros and cons to all types of coatings. Hydrophobic coatings, for example, are durable and commercially available. However, they have lower performance in terms of ice ...
