Direct determination of interactions at surfaces
… time a fairly complete two dimensional picture of interactions between two adatoms on a surface as a function of both the interatomic distance and orientation. Four different combinations of adatoms, Re-Pd, W-Pd, Ir-Ir, and Re-Re, have been investigated on the (110) surfaces of tungsten. P(R), …

Investigations of the Non-Covalent Interactions of Arenes Using Phencyclone Based Molecular torsion Balances
… balances designed to quantify the non-covalent interactions of arenes have been synthesized and studied. These molecular balances are atropisomeric small molecule model system that exhibit two distinct states, one with and one without an intramolecular non-covalent arene interaction. The …

Mitigating fouling of heat exchangers with fluoropolymer coatings
… option. In this work, the fouling behaviour of fluoropolymer, polypropylene and stainless steel heat transfer surfaces in processing raw milk and whey protein solution are studied. Methodologies to assess the economics of antifouling coatings are developed and applied. Two experimental …

The relationship between enthalpy of immersion, and its derived wettability parameters, to flotation response
The wettability of mineral surfaces plays an important role in the flotation process. A wettable mineral is hydrophilic while a non-wettable mineral is hydrophobic. In the flotation process, sufficiently hydrophobic particles are collected by rising air bubbles and they report to the concentrate. …
