Abstract:A new surface treatment method is developed to achieve
total liquid
transfer. The transfer process of a liquid droplet is recorded through
high-speed photography and analyzed via image analysis to investigate
the hydrodynamic interactions. For a pristine PMMA surface, a viscous
and viscoelastic liquid facilitates transfer by increased viscous
and inertial forces and delayed liquid bridge breakage but is limited
by slow contact line slippage. Hydrophobic surface treatments can
increase contact line slippage and… Show more
