Remotely controllable liquid marbles. [PDF]
Adv Mater, 2012 With the ongoing need for miniaturized systems in many biological and chemical applications, there is an increasing demand for the development of versatile methods for controllable transport and manipulation of small volumes of liquids.1–9 Recently, liquid marbles — liquid droplets encapsulated by self-organized hydrophobic particles at the liquid/air ...

Freezing of a Liquid Marble [PDF]
Langmuir, 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

Coalescence of electrically charged liquid marbles [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2017 © The Royal Society of Chemistry. In this work, we investigated the coalescence of liquid water marbles driven by a DC electric field. We have found that two contacting liquid marbles can be forced to coalesce when they are charged by a sufficiently high

An Electrostatic Method for Manufacturing Liquid Marbles and Particle-Stabilized Aggregates [PDF]
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2018 We have developed a method for transferring particles from a powder bed to a liquid droplet using an electric field. This process has been used to create liquid marbles with characteristics not normally found in those formed by direct contact methods ...

Rough and Tough: How Particle Surface Roughness Affects Liquid Marble Formation and Stability [PDF]
Advanced ScienceLiquid marbles are liquid droplets encased by non‐wetting particles. They exhibit elastic and non‐sticking properties that enable applications such as sensors, adhesives, miniature reactors, and material carriers. The formation, stability, and properties

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.
