Elasticity of liquid marbles

open access: yesJournal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2015
Liquid marbles are liquid droplets covered densely with small particles. They exhibit hydrophobic properties even on hydrophilic surfaces and this behaviour is closely related to the Cassie wetting state and the phenomenon of superhydrophobicity. Typical liquid marbles are of millimetre size but their properties are analogous to smaller capsules and ...

Liquid marbles

Nature, 2001
The transport of a small amount of liquid on a solid is not a simple process, owing to the nature of the contact between the two phases. Setting a liquid droplet in motion requires non-negligible forces (because the contact-angle hysteresis generates a force opposing the motion), and often results in the deposition of liquid behind the drop.

Charge transport between liquid marbles

open access: yesChemical Engineering Science, 2013
Recent studies on liquid marble applications have shown the possibilities of using liquid marbles as biochemical or biological reactors. These potential applications of liquid marbles generate further interests in the investigation of materials and ...

Ionic Liquid Marbles

Langmuir, 2007
Liquid marbles have been reported during this decade and have been argued to be potentially useful for microfluidic and lab-on-a-chip applications. The liquid marbles described to date have been composed of either water or glycerol as the liquid and hydrophobized lycopodium or silica as the stabilizing particles.

Manufacture and properties of composite liquid marbles

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2020
Liquid marbles are non-stick droplets coated with colloidal usually hydrophobic particles. We suggest that "composite" liquid marbles, i.e. bi-liquid droplets, may be prepared with water droplets coated by a thin silicone oil layer containing hydrophobic, colloidal particles.The process enabling manufacturing water marbles coated with silicone oil ...

Electrowetting of Nonwetting Liquids and Liquid Marbles

Langmuir, 2006
Transport of a water droplet on a solid surface can be achieved by differentially modifying the contact angles at either side of the droplet using capacitive charging of the solid-liquid interface (i.e., electrowetting-on-dielectric) to create a driving force.
