Abstract This paper demonstrates a stainless-steel (SS) nano-pyramid structure (diameter of ~20–50 nm and pore size 156.1 nm) sputter-coated on mixed cellulose ester (MCE) membrane for the use in separation oil/water emulsions. SS-coated MCE presented superhydrophilic, antifouling surface as well underwater superoleophobicity. The coated achieved excellent efficiency >99% when applied to lig...

A new method to determine fluid flux at high pressures and temperatures has been developed used study serpentinites subduction zone conditions. Drill cores of a natural antigorite-serpentinite with strong foliation were in multi-anvil experiments the range 2–5 GPa 450–800°C. Fluids released upon dehydration are fixed by formation brucite an adjacent sink. The amount distribution serves as proxy...
