On the Mechanism of Floating and Sliding of Liquid Marbles

ChemPhysChem, 2009
AbstractLittle hovercrafts: The mechanisms of floating and sliding of liquid marbles (see picture) are elucidated. It is demonstrated that floating and sliding liquid marbles are separated from their supporting media by an air layer, resembling Leidenfrost drops.

Formation of liquid marbles and wetting transitions

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2012
The formation of liquid marbles was studied in the situation where hydrophobic particles coating the marbles "come from air". Droplets of water/ethanol solutions of various concentrations were coated with three kinds of powders: polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride and polyethylene.

Respirable liquid marble for the cultivation of microorganisms

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2013
A liquid marble has a porous and superhydrophobic shell, which prevents the liquid core within the marble from making any contact with outside surfaces, but at the same time allows gases to transport freely across the shell. In this study we demonstrated the use of this unique property of liquid marbles to build respirable micro-biological reactors to ...

Measurement of the Surface Tension of Liquid Marbles

Langmuir, 2011
The capillary rise and Wilhelmy plate methods have been used to study the "surface tension" of water marbles encapsulated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powders of 1-, 35-, and 100-μm particle size. With the capillary rise technique, a glass capillary tube was inserted into a water marble to measure the capillary rise of the water.
