Surfactant spreading on a thin liquid film: reconcilingmodels and experiments
The spreading dynamics of surfactant molecules on a thin fluid layer is of both fundamental and practical interest. A mathematical model formulated by Gaver and Grotberg [J Fluid Mech 235:399–414, 1992] describing the spreading of a single layer of insoluble surfactant has become widely accepted, and several experiments on axisymmetric spreading have confirmed its predictions for both the heigh...
متن کاملThe Influence of Ink Concentration and Layer Thickness on Yellow Colour Reproduction in Liquid Electrophotography Toner
Original scientific paper In liquid toner electrophotography, colour gamut is often diminished in the yellow region leading to problems with photo quality prints. It is known that the concentration of pigment particles in the printing ink and its thickness when applied on a paper substrate decisively influence final print quality. Variation of these two parameters for the yellow process ink was...
متن کاملSpreading characteristics of an insoluble surfactant film on a thin liquid layer: comparison between theory and experiment
We describe measurements of the surface slope and reconstruction of the interface shape during the spreading of an oleic acid film on the surface of a thin aqueous glycerol mixture. This experimental system closely mimics the behaviour of an insoluble surfactant film driven to spread on a thin viscous layer under the action of a tangential (Marangoni) surface stress. Refracted image Moiré topog...
متن کاملthe influence of social and cultural capital on efl students critical thinking skills
the major aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between social and cultural capital and efl students’ critical thinking skills. this study takes this relationship in to account to see if people with different sociocultural status are different regarding their critical thinking skills. to this end, 160 university students majoring in english language and literature, english trans...
15 صفحه اولOn surfactant-enhanced spreading and superspreading of liquid drops on solid surfaces
The mechanisms driving the surfactant-enhanced spreading of droplets on the surface of solid substrates, and particularly those underlying the superspreading behaviour sometimes observed, are investigated theoretically. Lubrication theory for the droplet motion, together with advection–diffusion equations and chemical kinetic fluxes for the surfactant transport, leads to coupled evolution equat...
