Coating the inside of glass microtubes with a polymer hydrogel material dramatically alters the way capillary forces draw water into the tiny structures, researchers have found. The discovery could ...

Fill a narrow glass capillary tube with water, then turn it horizontal. Conventional wisdom says that the water will remain inside the tube. But a group of scientists in Spain and the UK has found ...

As energy costs and regulatory demands for system efficiency increase, thermostatic expansion valves (TXVs) are replacing capillary tubes, particularly in residential air conditioning and heat pumps.

Tube radial distribution chromatography (TRDC) is an innovative separation technique that exploits the spontaneous radial segregation of mixed solvent systems under laminar flow conditions in ...
