Photoreactive composite coating with composition dependent wetting properties

Photoelectrochemical Properties of CuS-GeO2-TiO2 Composite Coating Electrode

The ITO (indium tin oxide) conductive glass-matrix CuS-GeO2-TiO2 composite coating was generated via EPD (electrophoretic deposition) and followed by a sintering treatment at 450°C for 40 minutes. Characterizations of the CuS-GeO2-TiO2 composite coating were taken by SEM (scanning electron microscope), XRD (X-ray diffraction), EDX (energy dispersive X-ray), UV-Vis DRS (ultraviolet-visible diffu...

Composite materials : Composition , properties and clinical applications

After the establishment of composite as a restorative material, there was an attempt to categorise the different composite types according to filler size (Lutz & Philips 1983). This classification does not do justice to today’s composites, since most of the composite materials belong to the nanocomposites, nano-filled composites, nano-filled hybrid composites or micro-hybrid composites. Althoug...

Combination of Lithography and Coating Methods for Surface Wetting Control

Wetting Properties at Nanometer Scale

The proposed chapter reviews a series of experimental techniques which enable the accurate quantitative study of wetting properties. The introductive part presents some of the many phenomena and processes influenced by wetting, underlining the importance of understanding the fundamental science involved. A few historical considerations about the quantitative study of wetting and related phenome...
