Dropwise Condensation: Sprayable Thin and Robust Carbon Nanofiber Composite Coating for Extreme Jumping Dropwise Condensation Performance (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 1/2021)
Source abstract
Abstract
A polytetrafluoroethylene-carbon nanofiber nanocomposite coating is applied on a copper substrate with an aluminum primer for superhydrophobicity to facilitate jumping dropwise condensation. While being durable and scalable, the coating delivers extreme heat transfer improvements up to ≈900%. More details can be found in article number 2001176 by Dimos Poulikakos and co-workers.
