Abstract Recent strategies to prepare “omniphobic” surfaces have demonstrated that minimizing contact angle hysteresis (CAH) is the key criterion for effectiveness. CAH affected by chemistry and topography defects at molecular higher levels, thus most exhibit significant CAH. Preparative methods stable coatings on smooth substrates with negligible (<2°) a broad range of liquids not been reported. In this work, we describe simple rapid procedure omniphobic are under pressure durable...
Natural biopolymers are biodegradable and biocompatible thus have huge potential for the development of biomedical or transient systems. Herein, we report an entirely starch-based hydrogel flexible electronics including strain-sensitive batteries self-powered (SP) wearable sensors. This is only based on natural high-amylose starch, CaCl2, glycerol, preparation method green facile (namely, stirring at 70 °C 1 h). highly stretchable, flexible, reprocessable, self-healable. Based this hydrogel,...
Objective: To understand the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and influencing factors in adults with hypertension China provide evidence for management CKD patients. Methods: The data patients were collected from Chronic Disease Risk Factor Surveillance 2018, 68 829 analyzed. After complex weighting, study population was compared. A multivariate logistic regression model used to explore hypertension. Results: 18.2% (95%CI: 17.4%-19.0%) increased age, 16.4% men 20.6% women...
A simple method for the fabrication of tunable surfaces with wettability that can be manipulated rapidly and reversibly from superhydrophilicity to superhydrophobicity is reported. polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) was deposited on a rough substrate, via ion exchange counterion in PEM, water contact angle surface switched between <5 degrees 164 degrees. By controlling ion-exchange kinetics, same surface, completely erasable, rewritable gradient conveniently achieved.
High contact angle hysteresis on polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) ion-paired with hydrophobic perfluorooctanoate anions is reported. Both the bilayer number of PEMs and ionic strength deposition solutions have significant influence hysteresis: higher greater cause increased values. The values ~100° were observed smooth pinning receding line hydrophilic defects implicated as hysteresis. Surface roughness can be used to further tune PEMs. A surface extremely high 156° was fabricated when a...
Superhydrophobic coatings/materials are important for a wide variety of applications, but the majority these man-made still suffer from poor durability because their lack self-healing ability. Here, we report novel superhydrophobic materials which can quickly self-heal various severe types damage. In this study, used poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) infused with two liquids: trichloropropylsilane, reacts ambient moisture to self-assemble into grass-like microfibers (named silicone...

Three types of commercially derived methylsilicone materials, Sylgard-184, QVQH (an MQ-based silicone containing no dimethylsiloxane, D units), and DVDH (a D-based with additives), were judiciously chosen to study the conditions under which long-lasting hydrophilicity after oxygen plasma treatment can be obtained. A 30 s time controlled was found optimal in terms achieving lowest initial advancing receding contact angles θA/θR = 10°/5° undetectable surface damage. Vacuum treatment, a...
As high-amylose starch (HAS) has a higher content of linearly structured chains than other types starch, it is more scientifically interesting to realize enhanced properties or new functions for food and materials applications.
