529 results about "Van der Waals force" patented technology

In molecular physics, the van der Waals force, named after Dutch scientist Johannes Diderik van der Waals, is a distance-dependent interaction between atoms or molecules. Unlike ionic or covalent bonds, these attractions do not result from a chemical electronic bond; they are comparatively weak and therefore more susceptible to disturbance. The van der Waals force quickly vanishes at longer distances between interacting molecules.

InactiveUS20050113936A1Reduce surface tensionPromote and inhibit ingrowthSuture equipmentsHeart valvesGas phaseNanostructure
The invention is directed to nanostructure surface treatments, coatings or modifications formed from nanoscale building blocks. The nanostructure surface treatments, modifications or coatings have hydrophobic, hydrophilic and surface adherence properties. The nanoscale building blocks have orientation, geometry, packing density and composition that may be adjusted to control the unique surface characteristics of the desired treatment, coating or modification. Applications of this nanostructure technology include surgical clips, staples, retractors, sutures and manipulators where an improvement in traction, retention or occlusion is desired without excessive material or tissue deformation or where high compressive forces would be undesirable, dangerous or ineffective. In one aspect, a nanostructure surface treatment for a medical device having an external surface is disclosed, wherein the treatment is applied on the external surface to provide a hydrophobic or a hydrophilic surface. With this aspect, the treatment comprises titanium dioxide and provides nanoscopic structures having nearly vertical sidewalls. The treated surface of the device has contact angles greater than or equal to 150 degrees. The vertical sidewalls provide a negative capillary effect and have a width of about 200 nm. The vertical sidewalls attach to a wet surface by the negative capillary effect. The van der Waals forces of the vertical sidewalls enable the treated surface to attach to a dry surface. The treatment may be vapor deposited and cured on the device, or the treatment may be laser blasted on the device.

Method for plating nickel layer on surface of multiwall carbon nanotube

The invention discloses a method for plating a nickel layer on the surface of a multiwall carbon nanotube, and relates to a method for plating a metal layer on the surface of the multiwall carbon nanotube. The invention solves the problems that the multiwall carbon nanotube is subject to aggregation and reacts with oxide easily to cause structural damage. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, acidizing treatment; secondly, preparation of sensitizing solution; thirdly, sensitization treatment; fourthly, activation treatment; and fifthly, plating treatment. After the nickel layer is plated on the surface of the multiwall carbon nanotube by the method, the Van der Waals force of the surface of the multiwall carbon nanotube is weaken and the problems that the multiwall carbon nanotube has the trend of mutual intrication and is subject to aggregation easily can be improved; and the nickel layer on the surface of the multiwall carbon nanotube can protect the carbon nanotube and can prevent the surface of the multiwall carbon nanotube from being damaged by other media (oxidizing medium and corrosion medium). In addition, due to the fine size of carbon nanotube, nickel with the crystal grain on the nano-scale can be better dispersed and the chemical catalytic activity of the nickel can be improved.
