Electrowetting of Nonwetting Liquids and Liquid Marbles
Langmuir, 2006Transport 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.

Shaped composite liquid marbles
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2014Shaped "cubic" non-stick droplets are reported. Shaped composite droplets were manufactured via a two-stage process. In the first stage, cubic foamed-polystyrene particles were hydrophilized with cold radiofrequency plasma. Then particles were wetted with water.

Stimulus-Responsive Liquid Marbles
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2009Millimeter-sized "liquid marbles" are usually prepared using highly hydrophobic particles such as fluorosilane-treated lycopodium powder or alkylated silica sols. In the present work it is shown that "liquid marbles" can be prepared using sterically stabilized polystyrene latex; remarkably, such latex particles can be readily prepared by aqueous ...

The porous and superhydrophobic shell of a liquid marble prevents contact of its liquid core with outside surfaces, but allows gas transport. Liquid marble can therefore be used to sense gas or emit gas. Liquid marbles loaded with different indicators can simultaneously sense different gases via different mechanisms.

Osmotic evolution of composite liquid marbles
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2021We hypothesized that the reported evolution (growth) of composite water marbles filled with saline water and coated with lycopodium dispersed in a thin layer of silicone oil is due to the osmotic mass transfer. The hypothesis is supported by the semi-empirical model of osmotic growth of small liquid marbles floating on distilled water.Saline composite,

Interfacial crystallization in the polyhedral liquid marbles
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2023We hypothesized that interfacial crystallization occurring within evaporated polyhedral liquid marbles may be controlled by hydrophilization of the polymer plates coating the marbles. The hypothesis was tested with polyhedral marbles coated with hydrophobized and cold plasma-hydrophilized PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) plates.Interfacial ...

Advanced Materials, 2010 Magnetic liquid marbles exhibit a remarkable ability to be opened and closed reversibly under the action of a magnetic field. Liquid can be either extracted from or added to the opened liquid marble simply with a capillary needle.

Liquid marbles are liquid drops made non-wetting by the use of a powder which coats them. Because of the absence of a contact line, quick motions without leakage of small amounts of liquid are allowed, which can be of interest in microfluidic applications.

Photoresponsive Liquid Marbles and Dry Water
Langmuir, 2014Stimuli-responsive liquid marbles for controlled release typically rely on organic moieties that require lengthy syntheses. We report herein a facile, one-step synthesis of hydrophobic and oleophobic TiO2 nanoparticles that display photoresponsive wettability.
