Researchers at the University of Konstanz have developed a gentle, contact-free method to collect liquids and remove them from microscopic surface structures. The method uses vapor condensation to ...

Researchers explain a new mechanism for ice formation. Ice can form near the free surface of a water droplet via small precursors with a structure resembling ice 0. These are readily formed by ...

Step into the hidden science lab in your kitchen with five easy experiments that explain refraction, surface tension, ...

In its most basic form, surface tension is the tendency of liquids to bead up rather than spread out because they are more attracted to themselves (cohesion) than they are attracted to other things, ...

Discover the amazing properties of water's surface tension as you make metal paper clips float on water. You'll learn about the forces that hold water molecules together and how insects like water ...

Principal Researcher Sung-Hyuk Song (right) and Head of the Advanced Robotics Research Center Dong Il Park (left) at KIMM’s Research Institute of AI Robotics, who developed the variable-stiffness ...

Create beautiful swirling patterns while learning about surface tension, molecular interactions, and how soap affects milk's properties. Similar to the pepper dance experiment, watch as soap creates ...

The applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry for the precise characterization of liquid-liquid and liquid-air interfaces include surface science, biomedical applications, thin film coatings, and ...

Colloid and surface chemistry encompasses the study of systems in which microscopic particles are dispersed in a continuous phase and the energetic, interfacial and molecular processes that govern ...
