This work investigated the influence of addition of silver and sifbronze flux in wetting and spreading of Zn 50 alloys on mild steel substrate. Seven (7) Zn 50 alloys obtained in a design of experiments by Scheffe mixture method were subjected to the investigations. The wettability of the investigated Zn 50 alloys was examined in a spread test. An...

... test results of the Zn 50 alloys on the substrate presented in Figure 2 indicate a strong influence of the added flux in its wetting properties. That could be explained by the flux varied degree of shield offered against the test environment active elements during the wetting test. ...
Context 2
... FT-IR bands are considerably narrow in shape and combination of reasonably strong, medium and weak bands as shown in Figure 2. Such results obtained will help discuss functional chemical groups present in the joint environment. ...

The wettability property of a material surface is highly dependent on the topography of the surface micro/nanostructure. Femtosecond (fs) laser can be used to fabricate various kinds of surface micro/nanostructures. We present parallel microgroove arrays with unique cross-sectional profiles on the surface of an aluminum foil induced by varying the...
The change of pressure, temperature or chemical composition of crude oil during oil production constitute the factors that may destabilize the heaviest fraction of crude oil presented in asphaltenes leading to many problems in the production system including the alteration of reservoir rock wettability, permeability reduction, plugging of tubing an...
Developing a porous separation membrane that can efficiently separate oil–water emulsions still represents a challenge. In this study, nanofiber membranes with polydopamine clusters polymerized and embedded on the surface were successfully constructed using a solution blow-spinning process. The hierarchical surface structure enhanced the selective...
Condensation of water vapor on metal surfaces is observed in various industrial applications. Experimental study of condensation phenomena on a wettability modified aluminium surface in the presence of quiescent humid air is presented in this work. We use a hydrophilic, superhydrophilic and hydrophobic plain surface to examine the condensation proc...
Aerosol particles dynamically evolve in the atmosphere by physicochemical interactions with sunlight, trace chemical species, and water. Current modeling approaches fix properties such as aerosol refractive index, introducing spatial and temporal errors in the radiative impacts. Further progress requires a process-level description of the refractiv...
