JCIS publication by M. Šako and M. Kanduč: How plants keep their water intact
It’s often thought that liquids cannot be stretched — pull on them, and they simply break by forming bubbles. Yet remarkably, plant sap flows under negative pressures of up to –100 atm without forming bubbles. We show that amphiphilic molecules … Read More
Published in JCIS: Surfactants feel the curvature
New research by Fabio Staniscia and Matej Kanduč, published in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, reveals how the shape and size of water nanodroplets and nanobubbles influence the adsorption of amphiphilic molecules. Using molecular simulations, the study shows … Read More
Work on anisotropic electrostatic interactions between charged particles published in Nat. Commun.
Electrostatic interactions play a key role in the behavior of soft and biological matter, yet their complexity increases when particle charge distributions are inhomogeneous. Dr. Anže Božič and his collaborators from FMF, University of Padova, and TU Wien recently published … Read More
