Polyhedral Liquid Marbles [PDF]
Advanced Functional Materials, 2019 AbstractA new type of armored droplet, a so‐called polyhedral liquid marble, is introduced in this work. These armored liquid marbles consist of liquid droplets stabilized by hydrophobic hexagonal plates made of poly(ethylene terephthalate), which adsorb to the liquid–air interface.

Liquid marble formation: Spreading coefficients or kinetic energy? [PDF]
Powder Technology, 2009 A liquid marble is a network of self-assembled hydrophobic powder around a droplet. The mechanism and driving force leading to the formation of liquid marbles have not been investigated.

Responsive Photonic Liquid Marbles [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie, 2020 AbstractLiquid marbles have potential to serve as mini‐reactors for fabricating new materials, but this has been exploited little and mostly for conventional chemical reactions. Here, we uncover the unparalleled capability of liquid marbles to act as platforms for controlling the self‐assembly of a bio‐derived polymer, hydroxypropyl cellulose, into a ...

Gas Marbles: Much Stronger than Liquid Marbles [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2017 Enwrapping liquid droplets with hydrophobic particles allows the manufacture of so-called "liquid marbles" [Aussillous and Quéré Nature (London) 411, 924 (2001); NATUAS0028-083610.1038/35082026Mahadevan Nature (London)411, 895 (2001)NATUAS0028-083610.1038/35082164].

Monolayer Nanoparticle‐Covered Liquid Marble Production with Low Surface Tension Liquids
Advanced Materials Interfaces, 2020 As an emerging droplet system, monolayer nanoparticle‐covered (mNPc) liquid marbles have shown fascinating properties and application values. Their formation process has been clear, but liquid availability for production has yet to be clarified.

Electromagnet polarity dependent reversible dynamic behavior of magnetic liquid metal marble
Materials Research Express, 2020 We report reversible dynamic behavior of a magnetic liquid metal marble by changing magnetic field polarity. We coated iron (Fe) particles on the surface of the oxidized liquid metal by HCl-based chemical reaction to make it to be magnetized and to be ...
