Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
An effective method to manipulate the surface chemistry and morphology of glass fibers (GF) by exploiting the strong attractive interactions between poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and GF is reported for the first time in this paper. The effects of PDMS molar mass, annealing temperature, fumed silica and poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) on GF's surface modification were investigated and the underlying mechanisms were elucidated. Using PDMS as a molecular binder, the SiO nanoparticles can be firmly anchored onto the GF surfaces to produce superhydrophobic/superoleophilic GF membranes with "oil selectivity". Besides, PDMAEMA can readily functionalize GF surfaces through block copolymerization of PDMS, resulting in pH-responsive/underwater superoleophobic GF membranes with "water selectivity". The superwetting membranes exhibit excellent oil/water separation performances with high separation efficiency (99%), good organic solvent resistance, and long-term stability. This approach is scalable and expected to be applied to any PDMS/glass substrate pairs to achieve customized functionalities.
