Salt templated and graphene nanoplatelets draped copper (GNP-draped-Cu) composites for dramatic improvements in pool boiling heat transfer
Abstract We demonstrate a novel technique to achieve highly surface active, functional, and tunable hierarchical porous coated surfaces with high wickability using a combination of ball milling, salt-templating, and sintering techniques. Specifically, using ball-milling to obtain graphene nanoplatel...
