Using porous graphene as both a specific model system and an analog ... Drawing on our previous work that showed how electrical doping can tune the hydrophobic effect on graphene,[2] a prediction ...

Researchers have implemented polyphenylene-based anion exchange membranes poised to make hydrogen production more efficient and durable. The robust hydrophobic design enables effective ion transport ...

Xin-Yu Guo and colleagues introduce a Janus channel of membranes system featuring a novel design that consists of a narrow, confined channel flanked by contrasting hydrophilic and hydrophobic ...

A team of chemists and engineers in China has developed a new, efficient way to separate oil and water mixtures. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes how they developed ...

The plasma membrane of a cell is a bilayer of glycerophospholipid molecules. (B) A single glycerophospholipid molecule is composed of two major regions: a hydrophilic head (green) and hydrophobic ...
