Protrusion driven disintegration of droplets is a unique mechanism where the amphiphiles adsorb at the surface, enhance surface heterogeneity and form protrusions, that drive disintegration of droplet into small molecular clusters. For more details->Link below :

🌟 Check out our recent paper showing how intrinsic water molecules govern CO2 transport during its migration from air to water. We show how asymmetric intermolecular interactions and interfacial electrostatic potential shape the interfacial structure and transport dynamics.

Check out our recent work demonstrating how novel surfactants like ODMS with a cationic head group can enhance CO₂ capture at the air-water interface.

Self-Assembled Oligomers Facilitate Amino Acid-Driven CO2 Capture at the Air–Aqueous Interface
Direct air capture of CO2 using amino acid absorbents, such as glycine or sarcosine, is constrained by the relatively slow mass transfer of CO2 through the air–aqueous interface. Our recent study show...

⭐️🌎Happy to share our recent study showing the mechanism of CO2 capture at water interface using aqueous absorbents, now out in JACS. 🌟

Over the last year I have been learning extensively about lab management, budgeting, etc, I must say it is a whole different skill set of its kind.

Adsorption, Orientation, and Speciation of Amino Acids at Air–Aqueous Interfaces for the Direct Air Capture of CO2 | Langmuir
Adsorption, Orientation, and Speciation of Amino Acids at Air–Aqueous Interfaces for the Direct Air Capture of CO2
Amino acids make up a promising family of molecules capable of direct air capture (DAC) of CO2 from the atmosphere. Under alkaline conditions, CO2 reacts with the anionic form of an amino acid to prod...

💫 Happy to share our recent paper now published in JCP, we showed how amphiphiles modulate the geometry of the water surface. “Isotropic ↔ anisotropic surface geometry transitions induced by adsorbed surfactants at water/vapor interfaces” pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/arti...
