Superhydrophobic materials—often called “never-wet” surfaces—are famous for making water bead up and roll away. They are used ...

Dip coating, a ubiquitous process in modern materials science and engineering, involves immersing a solid substrate into a liquid and then withdrawing it at a controlled speed to form a coherent film.

Surface coatings, which provide both protection and functionality, have long been important in a variety of industries. Liquid-infused surfaces (LIS) have been a ground-breaking technology that has ...

You can trace these and other powder coating problems back to one issue: parts hanging. Getting it wrong can make powder coating an excessive, unpredictable constraint. Getting it right can relieve ...

Polymeric coatings designed for corrosion protection are usually tougher and are applied in heavier films than are appearance coatings. Requirements of such coatings are much more stringent: They must ...
