研究人员创造了新的水采集晶体,从雾中收集水,而没有能源。 Researchers create new water-harvesting crystals that collect water from fog without energy.

来自纽约大学吉林大学、纽约大学阿布扎比和智能工程材料中心的研究人员创建了Janus晶体,这种新材料可以在没有能源的情况下从雾中提取水。 Researchers from Jilin University, NYU Abu Dhabi, and the Center for Smart Engineering Materials have created Janus crystals, a new material that can harvest water from fog without energy. 在沙漠动植物的启发下,水晶有水利和疏水表层,以高效地获取和转移水。 Inspired by desert flora and fauna, the crystals have hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces to capture and transfer water efficiently. 这一创新可以提供一个可持续的清洁水源。 This innovation could offer a sustainable source of clean water.
