Summary: Due to the increase of service temperature, the bond strength of polyimide composite film decreases significantly. This study proposes a double-layer structure consisting of a polyimide substrate and Polyetheretherketone coating to improve the adhesion between them. Atmospheric plasma treatment is used to enhance the PI/PEEK interface adhesion. Surface properties of PI films, such as wettability, chemical structure, element analysis, morphology, and roughness, were studied. The surface free energy increased after plasma treatment, and reactive groups containing oxygen were generated. The adhesion between PI film and PEEK coating was increased by exposing the inorganic particles on the PI film surface through plasma etching. The relative energy change and reactivity sequence of functional groups were simulated.

Summary: Surface roughness was studied to investigate its effect on the wetting of molten lead on alumina substrates, with changes observed in contact angle, contact diameter, drop height, and surface tension. Results showed that as the substrate roughness increased, surface free energy gradually increased, contact diameter decreased, drop height increased, and contact angle increased, with wetting behavior consistent with the Wenzel state.

Summary: Surface roughness has a significant impact on the wettability and surface energy of coal. While previous studies have examined the effect of surface roughness on coal wettability, little research has focused on the influence of surface energy, and the relationship between wettability and surface energy remains poorly understood. This study investigates the relationship between surface roughness and the wettability and surface energy of coal. Experimental measurements of coal surface roughness and contact angles under different conditions were conducted for Hami lignite, Anyang coking coal, and Zhaogu anthracite. The results show that increasing surface roughness improves wettability and increases surface energy for hydrophilic coal, while the opposite trend is observed for hydrophobic coal. There is a positive correlation between coal wettability and surface energy, suggesting that wettability can be analyzed from a surface energy viewpoint. Surfactants can modify coal wettability but do not affect the relationship between wettability and surface roughness.

Summary: This study investigates the behavior of gel surfaces and reveals that their behavior is influenced by both osmocapillary phase separation and elastocapillary deformation. A numerical model is developed to predict the phase separation and deformation on gel surfaces, and simulations are conducted to observe the behavior of sinusoidal and rough surfaces. The results show that the behavior of gel surfaces is determined by the relative lengths of osmocapillary and elastocapillary scales compared to the surface roughness scale.

Summary: Laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) have great potential in regenerative biomedicine for creating biomimetic implant surfaces with improved properties. In this study, stainless steel samples were treated with a picosecond laser system to create linear LIPSS patterns with grooves. The laser-treated surfaces demonstrated higher surface roughness, good biocompatibility, lower wettability, and higher corrosion resistance compared to untreated samples. The microscale surface roughness enabled the adhesion and migration of endothelial cells, reducing the chances of late stent thrombosis and in-stent restenosis. Furthermore, the laser-textured surfaces provided an environment supportive of cell attachment, proliferation, and alignment with nanogrooves, helping to overcome post-surgery complications after stent implantation.

Summary: This study investigates the humidity dependency of adhesion force between granite fragments and a silica glass plate. The findings show that the interaction force between stone fragments and the glass plate is independent of the particle size due to the surface roughness of the granite particles. The adhesion force is measured by studying the mass of the largest still attached particles, and the experimental results are consistent with the theoretical prediction.

Summary: This study aims to develop an antimicrobial silver zeolite glass ionomer cement (SZ-GIC) and determine its biocompatibility, physical, adhesive, and antibacterial properties. SZ-GICs were prepared by incorporating silver zeolite into GIC at different weight percentages and were evaluated for their various properties. The results showed that SZ-GICs have similar surface morphology and topography to GIC, but exhibit enhanced physical, adhesive, and antibacterial properties. Therefore, SZ-GICs have great potential for caries prevention and management.

Summary: The corrosion behavior of Fe-60 and Fe-83 ribbons in 0.6 M NaCl was studied. Fe-60 exhibited a local corrosion mode and formed a stable passivation film with higher corrosion resistance, while Fe-83 showed a combination of local and global corrosion modes and had lower corrosion resistance. Controlling the precipitation of nanocrystalline phases and increasing the POx content in the passivation film significantly improved the corrosion resistance of Fe-based glassy alloys.
