Colloidal particles can be adsorbed at fluid–fluid interfaces, a phenomenon frequently
observed in particle-stabilized foams, Pickering emulsions, and bijels. Particles adsorbed at …

The phenomena on the capillarity-driven migration of small objects are full of interest for
both scientific and engineering communities, and a critical review is thereby presented. The …

Harvesting fog is a charming approach to alleviating the global water shortage crisis.
However, it is extremely challenging to design fog collectors with high efficiency due to the …

Water collection from the air is a convenient and efficient solution to the freshwater shortage.
However, the lack of geometry-driven structures limits the development of high-efficiency …

Fog harvesting represents a promising strategy to address the global freshwater shortage.
To enhance the water collection efficiency, diverse geometric structures that can effectively …

We noticed that in literature, the term Pickering emulsion (PE) is used as soon as ingredients
contain particles, and in this review, we ask ourselves if that is done rightfully so. The basic …

The self-driving structure to orientate the water movement has attracted considerable
attention. Inspired by the wedgelike structures of biological materials in nature, such as …

Unidirectional transport is attracting increasing attention in the field of microfluidics, because
it does not require an external energy supply. However, most of the current self-driving …

Abstract The Tilted Wedge Microcavity Array (TWMA) structure of the Nepenthes alata
peristome allows for unidirectional fluid transport without any surface energy gradient …

The ability of particles to stabilize liquid films has broad applications in many fields, such as
drug delivery, biofuel catalysis, and crude-oil separation. The mechanism of particles to …
