“…Similar observations were made earlier for the adsorption of fatty acids from solutions and vapor phase which showed that there is less adsorption on mica, gold, platinum and chromium than on nickel, iron and copper. 147 Both studies revealed that surfaces become contaminated at different rates and to different levels, as a result of adsorption driven by molecule-surface interactions. White also proposed that organics can be gathered from the air by adsorption onto oxidized metal surfaces and therefore used as filling media in storage compartments to maintain surface cleanness of lower energy specimens such as glass or mica.…”

The term superhydrophilicity is only 11-12 years old and was introduced just after the explosion of research on superhydrophobic surfaces, in response to the demand for surfaces and coatings with exceptionally strong affinity to water. The definition of superhydrophilic substrates has not been clarified yet, and unrestricted use of this term to hydrophilic surfaces has stirred controversy in the last few years in the surface chemistry community. In this review, we take a close look into major definitions of hydrophilic surfaces used in the past, before we review the physics behind the superhydrophilic phenomenon and make recommendation on defining superhydrophilic surfaces and coatings. We also review chemical and physical methods used in the fabrication of substrates on surfaces of which water spreads completely. Several applications of superhydrophilic surfaces, including examples from the authors' own research, conclude this review.

“…Using this simplification the film thickness and mass density can be calculated. However, only a few studies have compared the mass density deduced from ellipsometry with that of radioisotope-labeled proteins or lipid depositions (7)(8)(9), i.e., calibrated the methods toward one another. In one recent study spontaneously adsorbed monolayers (up to 2 nm thick) of HSA were quantified by both RIA and null ellipsometry.…”

“…Since the contaminants adsorption is guided by the interaction between the molecule and the surface, the velocity and degree with which a surface is contaminated may differ [50,49]. For the evaluated experimentally cases, it is not known to what extent the hydrophilic tube wettability can be affected exactly by the continuous contact with the OP.…”
