Hydrophilic PDMS microchannels for high-throughput formation of oil-in-water microdroplets and water-in-oil-in-water double emulsions.
Here we present a novel surface modification method based on the sequential layer-by-layer deposition of polyelectrolytes yielding hydrophilic microchannels in PDMS-based microfluidic devices. The coatings are long-term stable and allow for the generation of monodisperse oil-in-water microdroplets even several months after the channel surface treatment. Due to the robustness of the polyelectrol...
متن کاملMicrochannels Constructed on Rough Hydrophobic Surfaces
A microchannel was constructed between two glass slides, taking advantage of their surface properties. The channel geometry was defined by a line that was previously printed on the slide surface using a highly water-soluble liquid [2-(2ethoxyethoxy)ethanol] as the ink. Water, which acted as the working fluid flowed along this line. Although the channel did not have any sidewalls, the water was ...
متن کاملSimulation of fluid flow in hydrophobic rough microchannels
Surface effects become important in microfluidic setups because the surface to volume ratio becomes large. In such setups the surface roughness is not any longer small compared to the length scale of the system and the wetting properties of the wall have an important influence on the flow. However, the knowledge about the interplay of surface roughness and hydrophobic fluid–surface interaction ...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Numerical modeling of magnetic microchannels for adsorption of water-soluble salt nanoparticles used in water transfer projects
In this research, a seawater desalination system has been studied and simulated by magnetic-electric method. The electric field is considered to ionize seawater and the magnetic field to isolate it. The equations of motion of water and salt particles are modeled by the Euler-Lagrangian method. Particularly important for the separation of micron diameter salts, the magnitude of the electric and ...
