Imparting hydrophobic functionalities to copper surface using laser ablation and water emulsion of surfactants

Wettability is one of the main characteristics of a surface and reflects the ability of a liquid to flow over a solid surface. Using hydrophobic functional surfaces in evaporator and condenser of heating plants to intensify heat exchange processes will increase efficiency and, consequently, reduce t...
