Synthesis and Fabrication of Silica Based Superhydrophobic Surfaces
Superhydrophobic surfaces with very high water contact angle >150° and very low roll-off angle have received more attentions due to their huge potential in environment, energy and biomedical applications. It is now well...
Origin and Characterization of Joints in Sedimentary Rocks: A Review
Discontinuities are ubiquitous in all rocks at different scales. Their characterization occupies a high ground in the field of geological research. Discontinuity abundance, strength, flow and frictional properties are ma...
Synthetic Microbial Community for the Bioremediation of Petroleum Contamination
Environmental contamination is always a research topic in petroleum industry, because it is hard to totally avoid oil spill in the field ground and during the transportation.
Phase Separation of Asphaltene Dissolved in Toluene Leads to Nuclei Formation Promoted by the Very Low Solubility of Fraction A1. Soluble Fraction A2 Hinders Nuclei Flocculation
Sudden aggregation of asphaltenes in toluene at room conditions is the consequence of reaching solubility concentration (close to 90 mg L-1) of the very low soluble asphaltene component A1 [1-3]. Thus at concentrations c...
