Arrested coalescence of particle-coated droplets into nonspherical supracolloidal structures.
Colloidal and supracolloidal structures with anisotropic shape and surface chemistry are potential building blocks for the fabrication of novel materials. Droplets or bubbles are often used as templates for the assembly of particles into supracolloidal structures of spherical shape. Particle-coated droplets or bubbles have recently been shown to also retain nonspherical geometries after deforma...
متن کاملDecompressing emulsion droplets favors coalescence.
The destabilization process of an emulsion under flow is investigated in a microfluidic device. The experimental approach enables us to generate a periodic train of droplet pairs, and thus to isolate and analyze the basic step of the destabilization, namely, the coalescence of two droplets which collide. We demonstrate a counterintuitive phenomenon: coalescence occurs during the separation phas...
متن کاملCoalescence of polymer droplets: experiments on collision
The coalescence of polymer droplets is a fundamental phenomenon which appears for example when mixing two polymers. When two polymeric droplets collide, a transient regime appears, which results from a competition between interfacial and viscoelastic effects : the spherical droplets deform to give birth to a new drop in a short time (tc) and the drop shape stabilizes after a long time. A novel ...
متن کاملCoalescence and Breakup of Oppositely Charged Droplets
The coalescence process of oppositely charged drops for different electrical conductivities of liquids is presented. When the electrical conductivity was relatively low, oppositely charged drops failed to coalesce under sufficiently high electrical fields and capillary ripples were formed on the surfaces of droplets after rebound. For a high electrically conductive liquid, it was found that a c...
متن کاملTemperature-Induced Collapse, and Arrested Collapse, of Anisotropic Endoskeleton Droplets.
Micron-scale rod-shaped droplets with a range of aspect ratios are produced using extrusion of oil containing a soft wax crystal network to permit shape customization. A physical model of the droplet shape stability is developed based on balancing interfacial stresses with the internal crystal network yield stress. The model predicts the mechanical properties required for particular droplet siz...
