During the last few years, Zn alloys have been explored by the biomedical community as potential materials for bioabsorbable vascular stents due to their tolerable corrosion rates and tunable mechanical properties. In the new review coming from our research team … Continue reading →

In our new collaborative study led by Prof. Eli Aghion from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel and described in the article entitled The Suitability of Zn– 1.3%Fe Alloy as a Biodegradable Implant Material, published in Metals, we evaluated … Continue reading →

In our new study described in article entitled “The most stable state of a droplet on anisotropic patterns: Support for a missing link,” surface tension and capillary forces were measured for water droplets in contact with anisotropic hydrophobic patterns made … Continue reading →

We are glad to share with you the content of the 1st issue of 2018 of Surface Innovations with twelve papers on surface phenomena and innovations.

It is still an open challenge to find a biodegradable metallic material exhibiting sufficient mechanical properties and degradation behavior to serve as an arterial stent. In our new study, and summarized in publication entitled “Novel high-strength, low-alloys Zn-Mg (<0.1 wt% … Continue reading →

In our new article entitled Direct measurements of adhesion forces for water droplets on smooth and patterned polymers published in the Surface Innovations journal, a microelectronic balance system was employed to measure the force of spreading during water droplet attachment … Continue reading →

Since the invention of froth flotation in 19th century, many laboratories are committed to both fundamental and applied research on collection of particles by dispersed gas bubbles in aqueous solutions of electrolytes, especially those working on processing of natural resources. … Continue reading →

The research team from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and led by Prof. Eli Aghion published, in collaboration with Prof. Goldman and SURFI, a new paper on two new zinc base alloys, Zn-1%Mg and Zn-1%Mg-0.5%Ca, which could serve as … Continue reading →
