New Paper on Nanodrops for Sonothermetry

Sept. 23, 2015

Congrats to Paul Mountford and Will Smith on the new article in Langmuir! This article examines superheated fluorocarbon mixtures for acoustic droplet vaporization. Effects of chemical composition, temperature and mechanical index are measured. The mixtures work great to tune the vaporization temperature in closed systems, but not so well in...

Open Position for Engineer

July 23, 2015

Professional Research Associate (PRA): The Borden Lab at the University of Colorado Boulder is currently looking to hire an engineer to work in the university laboratory on process scale-up. The work will involve design, fabrication and testing of an emulsion synthesis process to increase capacity by an order of magnitude...
