Abstract: Delamination of rigid objects from an elastic substrate with finite thickness is a fundamental problem underlying applications such as marine fouling release coatings or anti-icing coatings.

(Nanowerk News) One of the big selling points of two-dimensional (2D) materials is their self-passivated nature, which allows them to be deposited on any substrate and opens up new possibilities for ...

In spray coating applications, fine powder, often a polymer, is drawn from a storage container, fluidized, and then sprayed through a charged nozzle onto a substrate. It is crucial that the powder ...

The powder must fluidize effectively and consistently, avoiding agglomerate formation that might clog the nozzle or impact the charging of individual particles. This ensures good adhesion and prevents ...
