- Plastic with superior properties - weather resistant and
hydrophobic.

hydrophobic surfaces, Int.
Compared with conventional methods, microwave-assisted preparation of
hydrophobic modified guar gum can shorten reaction significantly and don't effect the modified guar gum properties (Chen et al.
This was mainly because the hydrophilic and
hydrophobic groups of DPA could induce
hydrophobic association in solutions, forming dynamic network structures, which enlarged the macromolecular hydrodynamic volume.
Less inflammatory cell deposition occurs on hydrophilic IOLs compared to
hydrophobic ones.
Generally, when the water contact angle is less than 90[degrees] the surface is called hydrophilic; when the contact angle is greater than 90[degrees] the surface is
hydrophobic. A surface having a water contact angle greater than 150[degrees] is usually classified as ultra
hydrophobic, i.e., a water-repellent surface.
The demand for
hydrophobic coatings has increased owing to its exceptional properties such as resistant to water, corrosion, and abrasion; stable against bio-fouling, inorganic, and organic pollutants, and ability of self-cleanliness.
[sup][10] Until date, there are mainly four types of IOL materials:
Hydrophobic acrylic, hydrophilic acrylic, silicone, and PMMA.
The analytical results obtained from the investigation on dynamics of wetting on ultra-hydrophobic surfaces have been compared with the analytical results obtained from the investigation of the dynamics of wetting on
hydrophobic surfaces.
The basis of this effect is
hydrophobic surface nanoprojections or nanofibers.
After selecting the sequence [right arrow] Protein [right arrow] Kyte-Doolittle scale mean hydrophobicity profile analysis menus, the window size was set at 56 on the open window, the program was executed using Run Plot, and the
hydrophobic peak values were read on the result figure.
Proline is known as a helix breaker in the protein structure and may be the proteolytic enzymes have less access to the
hydrophobic sequence for further proteolysis.
