Effect of the Initial Solute Concentration on the Flow Pattern Inside an Evaporating Polymer Solution Droplet on a Substrate

Abstract: The internal flow of an evaporating polymer solution droplet on a substrate is experimentally studied. The flow visualization is carried out. The effect of the initial polymer concentration is further investigated. A polystyrene-acetophenone (PS-Ap) and a polystyrene-anisole (PS-Ani) solution are employed as the droplet. A nylon powder is mixed with the droplet for the visualization by a YAG-laser sheet light. The droplet evaporates after the settlement on the substrate. Without the polymer dissolved in the so… Show more

“…Surface tension gradients arise naturally due to solute concentration gradients and/or temperature gradients. The strengths of these forces relative to viscous forces are characterized by the Marangoni numbers given in equations (3.5) and (3.6), respectively [122].…”

“…where γ represents surface tension, d 0 represents the initial droplet diameter, T is temperature, C is concentration, μ is viscosity, α is thermal diffusivity, and D AB is the mass diffusivity of the solute. As the Marangoni number increases, forces induced by the surface tension gradient outweigh viscous resistance and circulatory flow will occur [122]. For most liquids, surface tension decreases with temperature linearly for small perturbations [107].…”
