Funded Activity Summary

Theoretical modelling study of thin film permeability. Loss of water from open storages through evaporation exceeds 40 per cent. This project will study the structure, stability and permeation properties of the protective ultra-thin layers. The knowledge will help design novel evaporation suppressants which will drastically reduce water losses and will be crucial for new membrane and drug delivery technologies.
