Interfaces and the driving force hydrophobic assembly

Article Abstract:

The hydrophobic effect, the tendency for oil and water to segregate, is important in diverse phenomena, from the cleaning of laundry, to the creation of micro-emulsions new materials, to the assembly of proteins into functional complexes. This effect is multifaceted depending on whether hydrophobic molecules are individually hydrated or driven to assemble into larger structures.

Dreams of the new space race

Article Abstract:

The new-space sector is booming due to the entrepreneurs offering space tourism for people willing to pay huge amounts to ride on those spacecrafts. Space Adventures, based in Vienna, Virginia, Scaled Composites of Mojave, California and Virgin Galactic, a U.S. subsidiary of the Virgin Group, are some of the private spaceflight companies that are offering sub-orbital trips.

Oil on troubled waters

Article Abstract:

Researchers have studied the depletion layer at the interface between water and a hydrophobic surface, calculating the molecular dynamics of water confined by two surfaces with nanometer-scale patterns of hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions. They have shown that sufficient pressure removes the interface, and the mean deletion associated with it.
