Web29 sep. 2005 · The hydrophobic effect--the tendency for oil and water to segregate--is important in diverse phenomena, from the cleaning of laundry, to the creation of micro-emulsions to make new materials, to the assembly of proteins into functional complexes. WebHydrophobic interaction is defined as the attractive interaction with a magnitude exceeding van der Waals interaction between two nonpolar particles in an aqueous solution.23,24 Hydrophobic interaction is originated from the assembly structure of interfacial water molecules adjacent to the nonpolar patch ( Fig. 4 ).23,24 The interfacial water …

Web11 apr. 2024 · In summary, we design and fabricate a flexible JNM composed of one thick superhydrophilic MCP layer and the other thin hydrophobic layer. The MCP layer is prepared by ultrasonication induced MXene/chitosan assembly onto the PU nanofiber surface, and the MP layer is obtained by a dip-coating method. michelle gregory brooks
