Controlling hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity via electron beam-assisted coating technology

Accurate regulation of surface hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity is crucial for various industrial applications, but current methods often lack stability, precision, and scalability. A team of scientists has introduced an electron beam irradiation (EBI)-assisted coating method that provides a reliable and scalable approach to control surface wetting properties. Their work is published in the journal Industrial Chemistry & Materials.
