Controlled orientation of polystyrene-b-poly(L-lactide) nanostructured thin films by air plasma treatment via thermal annealing by Wen-Chi Huang, Thanmayee Shastry, Pin-Chia Chen, Ashika A P, Kang-Ping Liu, Rong-Ming Ho

“…Subsequently, the second air plasma treatment is carried on the second layer of PS-b-PLLA thin film to give a topcoat neutral layer for the development of perpendicular PLLA cylinders from the top of the thin film after thermal annealing, giving film-spanning perpendicular PLLA cylinders through self-alignment process. With the degeneration of the PLLA in the PS-b-PLLA monolith, it is possible to create PS film with prolonged cylindrical nanochannels that is appealing for applications such as NanoMEMS manufacturing, membrane fabrication and templated synthesis.…”

Experimental study on frost formation on cold surfaces with different inclination angles under forced convection conditions by Zhimin Han, Huijian Liu, Hongtu Chen, Zhanpeng Wang, Zhiming Xu

“…For cold surfaces with different inclination angles (0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, and 180°), an orthogonal experimental approach is further adopted to delve into the frost layer growth process on these surfaces in detail. The results indicate that, under certain operating conditions, frost thickness and quality on a horizontal cold surface increase with higher relative humidity, higher inlet wet air temperature, lower cold surface temperature, and faster wet air velocity. …”
