Freezing of a Liquid Marble [PDF]

open access: yesLangmuir, 2012
In this study, we present for the first time the observations of a freezing liquid marble. In the experiment, liquid marbles are gently placed on the cold side of a Thermo-Electric Cooler (TEC) and the morphological changes are recorded and characterized thereafter.

Liquid marble-based digital microfluidics – fundamentals and applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Liquid marbles are droplets with volume typically on the order of microliters coated with hydrophobic powder. Their versatility, ease of use and low cost make liquid marbles an attractive platform for digital microfluidics.

Hot liquid marbles. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A
In the insect realm, liquids become traps due to capillary and viscous forces dominant at their scale. Yet, aphids handle the highly viscous honeydew droplets they secrete by coating them with hydrophobic wax powder which maintains an air layer between their body and the liquid.

Controllable high-performance liquid marble micromixer

open access: yes, 2022
A liquid marble is a liquid droplet coated with a shell of microparticles. Liquid marbles have served as a unique microreactor for chemical reactions and cell culture. Mixing is an essential task for liquid marbles as a microreactor.

Monolayer Nanoparticle‐Covered Liquid Marble Production with Low Surface Tension Liquids

open access: yesAdvanced 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

open access: yesMaterials 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 ...

Investigation of liquid marble shell using X‐ray: shell thickness and effective surface tension

open access: yes, 2021
Liquid marble is a non-wetting droplet encapsulated by micro- or nano-sized hydrophobic particles. Recently, liquid marble has been emerging as a tool for digital microfluidics.
