Self-Cleaning of Surfaces and Water Droplet Mobility
Yilbas,Bekir. ; Sharafi ,Abdullah Al.
Self-Cleaning of Surfaces and Water Droplet Mobility / B S Yilbas. - Amsterdam, Netherlands : Elsevier , 2019. - xi, 442 pages ; 23 cm.
1. Introduction 2. Wetting Characteristics of Surfaces 3. Surfaces for Self-Cleaning 4. Environmental Dust on Surfaces 5. Water Droplet Dynamics and Heat Transfer 6. Dust Effects on Surfaces in Humid Environment and Applications 7. Application of Water Droplet for Self-Cleaning of Surfaces 8. Concluding Remarks
Self-cleaning of Surfaces and Water Droplet Mobility deals with the self-cleaning of hydrophobic surfaces. Chapters cover the basics of wetting states of fluids and surface characteristics in terms of texture topology and free energy. The self-cleaning aspects of surfaces, such as various synthesizing and fabrication processes are then introduced and discussed, along with environmental dust properties, including elemental compositions, particle sizes and shapes, and their chemo-mechanics characteristics. In addition, mud formation in humid air, as well as ambient and dry mud adhesion on optically transparent surfaces is explored, as is water droplet dynamics on hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces, amongst other topics.
The book fills the gap between the physical fundamentals of surface energy and texture characteristics for practical applications of surface cleaning and provides a basic understanding of the self-cleaning of surfaces that will be idea for academics, researchers and students.
