Adhesion01:14

Adhesion

44.4K
Adhesion occurs when one type of molecule is attracted to a different molecule. Water exhibits adhesive properties in the presence of polar surfaces, such as glass or cellulose in plants. For instance, when water is poured into a glass, the positively charged hydrogen molecules of water are more attracted to the negatively charged oxygen molecules in the silica than to the oxygen in neighboring water molecules.
Capillary action is a result of water’s adhesive tendencies. When a narrow...

Interfacial Electrochemical Methods: Overview

879
Interfacial electrochemical methods focus on the phenomena occurring at the boundary between an electrode and a solution, as opposed to bulk methods that concentrate on the solution's overall properties. These interfacial methods are classified as either static or dynamic based on the presence of a nonzero current in the electrochemical cell and the consistency of analyte concentrations. Static methods, such as potentiometry, measure the cell's potential without any significant current...

Layers of the Epidermis01:21

Layers of the Epidermis

8.2K
The epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin, is composed of several distinct layers. From deep to superficial, the layers of the epidermis are as follows:
Stratum Basale
Stratum basale, also known as the stratum germinativum, is the deepest layer of the epidermis. It is composed of a single layer of actively dividing cells called basal cells or basal keratinocytes. These cells constantly undergo cell division to replenish the upper layers of the epidermis. Additionally, melanocytes, which...

Cell Adhesion in Plants01:14

Cell Adhesion in Plants

3.4K
Plants have rigid cell walls that are made up of cell wall polysaccharides that mediate cell-cell adhesion. The primary cell walls of plants consist of two independent and interacting polysaccharide networks: a pectin matrix that embeds the second network comprising cellulose and hemicelluloses.
Pectins are complex heteropolymers mainly composed of negatively-charged α-D-glucopyranosyl uronic acid and some neutral glycosyl residues such as α-L-rhamnopyranose, α-L-arabinofuranose,...

Theories of Dissolution: The Danckwerts' Model and Interfacial Barrier Model

800
Various dissolution theories provide insight into the factors that influence the dissolution rate. Danckwerts' Model suggests that turbulence, rather than a stagnant layer, characterizes the dissolution medium at the solid-liquid interface. In this model, the agitated solvent contains macroscopic packets that move to the interface via eddy currents, facilitating the absorption and delivery of the drug to the bulk solution. The regular replenishment of solvent packets maintains the...

Thematic Layering in GIS01:30

Thematic Layering in GIS

352
In the past, planning projects such as schools or public facilities required extensive manual effort to gather and compile data. Information such as property boundaries, soil characteristics, road networks, zoning regulations, and flood zones had to be sourced individually from courthouses, utility providers, and registry offices. Assembling these datasets into a coherent format often took several months, delaying project timelines.The introduction of Geographic Information Systems (GIS)...

Summary

Researchers improved the adhesion of titania nanotube arrays (TNTAs) to titanium by using anodization posttreatment processes. This enhances their performance in flexible supercapacitors, especially on thin titanium sheets.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Anodic titania nanotube arrays (TNTAs) often suffer from poor adhesion to titanium substrates, leading to delamination, particularly with thin titanium sheets.
  • Interfacial adhesion strength decreases as the thickness of the TNTA layer increases, posing challenges for practical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enhance the interfacial adhesion of TNTAs to titanium substrates.
  • To investigate the effect of anodization posttreatment processes on adhesion and residual stress.
  • To improve the performance of TNTAs for supercapacitor applications, especially on thin titanium foils.

Main Methods:

  • TNTAs were prepared using a standard fluoride-containing electrolyte.
  • Posttreatment anodization processes were applied at lower current densities (e.g., 1 mA cm⁻²) or lower voltages (e.g., 10 V) for short durations (e.g., 5 min).
  • Mechanical testing was employed to evaluate interfacial adhesion properties.

Main Results:

  • Anodization posttreatment processes significantly improved the interfacial adhesion of TNTAs to titanium.
  • These treatments were effective even on very thin titanium sheets (approximately 18 μm).
  • Reduced residual stress at the nanotube/titanium interface was observed, correlating with improved adhesion.

Conclusions:

  • Anodization posttreatment is an effective strategy to mitigate residual stress and enhance TNTA adhesion.
  • Robust TNTAs on thin titanium foils enable higher volumetric capacitances and are suitable for flexible supercapacitors.
  • The developed methods offer a pathway for advanced nanomaterial fabrication for energy storage devices.
