Drop spreading and gelation of thermoresponsive polymers
Riëlle de Ruiter, Laurent Royon, Jacco H. Snoeijer +1
Spreading and solidification of liquid droplets are elementary processes of relevance for additive manufacturing. Here we investigate the effect of heat transfer on spreading of a…
Droplets displacement and oscillations induced by ultrasonic surface acoustic waves: a quantitative study
P. Brunet, M. Baudoin, O. Bou Matar +1
We present an experimental study of a droplet interacting with an ultrasonic surface acoustic wave (SAW). Depending on the amplitude of the wave, the drop can either experience an…
To grate a liquid into tiny droplets by its impact on a hydrophobic micro-grid
P. Brunet, F. Lapierre, F. Zoueshtiagh +2
We report on experiments of drop impacting a hydrophobic micro-grid, of typical spacing a few tens of m. Above a threshold in impact speed, liquid emerges to the other side, for…
Extreme resistance of super-hydrophobic surfaces to impalement: reversible electrowetting related to the impacting/bouncing drop test
P. Brunet, F. Lapierre, V. Thomy +2
The paper reports on the comparison of the wetting properties of super-hydrophobic silicon nanowires (NWs), using drop impact impalement and electrowetting (EW) experiments. A corr…
