Abstract:The spreading dynamics of small oil drops over nanofiber layers has been investigated to improve the oil spill management process. Although liquid transport studies have been used to compare different substrates, the actual effect of the fibrous substrate structure has not been precisely investigated. Nanofiber substrate structures consist of micro- and nanocapillaries that vary in diameter and length and are interconnected in a complex manner. Migration of a liquid from one layer to another as well as on the … Show more
