Abstract
Photoswitchable Wettability
The spiropyran-containing porous surfaces with a certain roughness range demonstrate a photoswitchable wetting properties upon UV exposure due to the ring-opening reaction of spiropyran resulting in a higher dipole moment. Condensate droplets on UV-switched regions coalesce faster, lower number of droplets as well as larger merged droplets form on the surface as the surface is less hydrophobic. More details can be found in article 2400396 by Dorothea Helmer and co-workers.
期刊介绍:
Advanced Materials Interfaces publishes top-level research on interface technologies and effects. Considering any interface formed between solids, liquids, and gases, the journal ensures an interdisciplinary blend of physics, chemistry, materials science, and life sciences. Advanced Materials Interfaces was launched in 2014 and received an Impact Factor of 4.834 in 2018.
The scope of Advanced Materials Interfaces is dedicated to interfaces and surfaces that play an essential role in virtually all materials and devices. Physics, chemistry, materials science and life sciences blend to encourage new, cross-pollinating ideas, which will drive forward our understanding of the processes at the interface.
Advanced Materials Interfaces covers all topics in interface-related research:
Oil / water separation,
Applications of nanostructured materials,
2D materials and heterostructures,
Surfaces and interfaces in organic electronic devices,
