In general, superhydrophilic coating on glass substrate possesses water contact angle (WCA) below 10° and contains high self-cleaning properties in outdoor environment as compared to noncoated glass substrate panels. In this study, the superhydrophilic coating behavior on glass substrate has been developed. The micro- and nanosized titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles have been utilized to improve the surface roughness, and the polypropylene glycol (PPG) has been utilized to increase the surface energy of glass substrates. The wettability of coating surface shows the coating possess water contact angle (WCA) as low as 5° and suddenly reduce to 0° after 10 s. Superhydrophilic coated glass clearly shows excellent dirt repellent against dilute ketchup solution due to the absence of dirt streak on the glass surface. Meanwhile, the dirt streak is present on the bare glass surface indicating its weak self-cleaning property. The developed superhydrophilic coating on glass substrate was also found to have great antifog property compared to the bare glass substrate. Superhydrophilic surfaces have showed free tiny droplet even at 130°C of hot boiling bath for 10 min and completely dry after 1 min. The superhydrophilic coating surfaces have demonstrated free water streak after impacting with harsh water spraying for 5 min confirming that the superhydrophilic coating on glass substrate is antiwater streak.
Young generation these days are more creative and technology savvy than the older generation socially and financially. One particular question may arise on whether this generation is concerned about and aware of their financial status in the future and investment. This research seeks to examine the awareness towards investment among young generation. This study used primary data by questionnaire, and the samples chosen are the young generation aged from 18 to 28 years old. Based on our reading in the literature of awareness, there are three independent variables identified; financial literacy, personal interest, and environment that relate to the dependent variable, the awareness on investment. The objective of this is to examine the relationship awareness and the fore-mentioned independent variables. The result reveals that the key driven on investment among young generation is significantly based on independent variables selected. Finally, the limitations and recommendations are included to help further researchers to have a better finding of the result.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
