Materials with Extreme Wetting Properties : Methods and Emerging Industrial Applications, Paperback / softback Book

Materials with Extreme Wetting Properties : Methods and Emerging Industrial Applications Paperback / softback

Edited by Majid Hosseini, Ioannis Karapanagiotis

Paperback / softback

Description

This book aims at identifying novel advanced materials of extreme wetting properties (MEWP) for practical, industrial applications.

The state-of-the art superhdyrophobic, superhdyrophilic, superoleophobic, superoleophilic, and superomniphobic materials, that are MEWP, with respect to their technological and emerging industrial applications are discussed in this book.

MEWP offer new perspectives providing numerous potential applications.

Hence, these advanced MEWP have the potential to lead to a new generation of products and devices with unique properties and functionalities.

Despite the large scientific progress on MEWP there are still some obstacles which have to be solved to make these materials available for real life applications.

Recent advances on the production strategies, including methods and materials, of MEWP has shown that the durability and sustainability obstacles can be addressed thus offering the possibility for industrial exploitation.

MEWP with wettabilities ranging from superhydrophobicity to superhydrophilicity provide promising avenues for several and important applications, which sometimes are crucial for the humankind.

This book also discusses a large variety of other potential applications of MEWP, thus providing new ideas to scientists and engineers for further exploitation of these novel materials.

Moreover, the whole spectrum of the recent technological developments, current research progress, future outlook, and the modern trends in the applications of MEWP are discussed in a consistent approach.
