The impact dynamics of water drops on sized and unsized smooth cellulose films and paper surfaces with controlled roughness levels were studied. The objective was to better understand the effect of roughness on the liquid drop impact dynamics on paper surfaces, isolating from the effect chemical heterogeneity. Drop impact in the first few milliseconds were recorded using high-speed CCD camera and the three-phase contact line movement of the water drop was analyzed. Smooth cellulose film surface and rough paper surface showed similar impact dynamics, suggesting that the surface energy plays a more dominant role than surface roughness. Significantly different dynamic contact angles of water drop on the sized and unsized surfaces were observed during drop impact. The Laplace pressure of the curved spreading front pointing to the centre of a spreading drop on these sized cellulose and paper surfaces reduces the three-phase contact line movement, and leads to smaller maximum spreading diameter. Our results suggest that the water drop spreads on the rough surface is most likely via a “roll-over” action rather than “stick and jump” movements.  相似文献

Surface topography of polished and blasted samples of a Ti6Al4V biomaterial has been studied using an atomic force microscope. Surface RMS roughness and surface area have been measured at different scales, from 1 to 50 μm, while at distances below 10 μm the surface RMS roughness in both kinds of samples is not very different, this difference becomes significant at larger scanning sizes. This means that the surface roughness scale that could have a main role in cell adhesion varies depending on the size, shape and flexibility of participating cells. This consideration suggests that in cell–material interaction studies, surface roughness should not be considered as an absolute and independent property of the material, but should be measured at scales in the order of the cell sizes, at least if a microscopic interpretation of the influence of roughness on the adhesion is intended. The microscopic information is contrasted with that coming from a macroscopic approach obtained by contact angle measurements for polar and non-polar liquids whose surface tension is comprised in a broad range. Despite the very large differences of contact angles among liquids for each surface condition, a similar increase for the blasted surface with respect to the polished has been found. Interpretation of these results are in accordance with the microscopic analysis done through the use of a functional roughness parameter, namely the valley fluid retention index, evaluated from the AFM images, which has been shown not to correlate with the RMS roughness, one of the most commonly used roughness parameter.  相似文献

Absolute resonant frequency measurements were made on gold-coated AT-cut quartz crystals with one face in contact with a series of liquids. The effect of surface roughness and liquid properties (viscosity and density) was analyzed in terms of a “trapped liquid” model. In this model, liquid present in surface imperfections is viewed as rigidly coupled mass. In some of the literature this density-dependent, but not viscosity-dependent, term is viewed as being additive to the hydrodynamic shift seen for a smooth surface. Data obtained using 1 μm and 5 μm surface finish crystals are inconsistent with the predictions of the trapped liquid model. This suggests hydrodynamic coupling between liquid internal and external to the crevices. Despite the lack of a theoretical model for the liquid motion, it is possible to compensate for frequency variations resulting from changing liquid properties and for roughness effects by making direct measurements of the resonant frequency difference between two crystals exposed to the same solution. This novel procedure works to the extent that the two crystals have similar surface topographies. Compensation is excellent for 1 μm finish crystals and good for 5 μm finish crystals.  相似文献

To investigate the influence of titanium films with nanometre scale topography on protein adsorption and cell growth, three different model titanium films were utilized in the present study. The chemical compositions, surface topographies and wettability were investigated by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and water contact angle measurement, respectively. The films share the same surface chemistry but exhibit different topographies on a nanometre scale. Thus, they act as model systems for biological studies regarding surface topography effects. The films were obtained by varying the deposition rate and the film thickness, respectively. These films displayed nanometre scale surface roughness (root mean square roughness, Rrms) from 2 to 21 nm over areas of 50 μm × 50 μm, with different grain sizes at their surfaces. Albumin and fibrinogen adsorption on these model titanium films were performed in this study. Bicinchoninic acid assay was employed to determine the amount of adsorbed protein on titanium film surfaces. No statistically significant differences, however, were observed for either albumin or fibrinogen adsorption between the different groups of titanium films. No statistically significant influence of surface roughness on osteoblast proliferation and cell viability was detected in the present study.  相似文献

Superhydrophobic films were obtained on the basis of sol–gel-derived titania or alumina/dodecylamine hybrid materials. It has been shown that wettability of surfaces of the inorganic oxides changes from superhydrophilic to superhydrophobic. For superhydrophobic materials, the surface roughness of the hybrid films on the basis of titania and alumina is 39 and 55 μm, respectively, and water contact angle is about 150°.  相似文献

The paper reports on the wetting characterization of two surfaces presenting reentrant shapes at micro- and nanoscale using low surface tension liquids (down to 28 mN/m). On the one hand, mushroom-like microstructures are fabricated by molding poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) onto a patterned sacrificial photoresist bilayer. On the other hand, zinc oxide nanostructures (ZnO NS) are synthesized by easy and fast chemical bath deposition technique. The PDMS and ZnO NS surfaces are then chemically modified with 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane in vapor phase. Both PDMS and ZnO NS surfaces exhibit a large apparent contact angle (>150°) and contact angle hysteresis varying from 50° to a quasi-null value. This large discrepancy can be ascribed to the length scale and topography of the structures, promoting either a vertical imbibition or a lateral spreading within the roughness.  相似文献

The adhesion forces holding micron-sized particles to solid surfaces can be studied through the detachment forces developed by the transit of an air–liquid interface in a capillary. Two key variables affect the direction and magnitude of the capillary detachment force: (i) the thickness of the liquid film between the bubble and the capillary walls, and (ii) the effective angle of the triple phase contact between the particles and the interface. Variations in film thickness were calculated using a two-phase flow model. Film thickness was used to determine the time-variation of the capillary force during transit of the bubble. The curve for particle detachment was predicted from the calculated force. This curve proved to be non-linear and gave in situ information on the effective contact angle developing at the particle–bubble interface during detachment. This approach allowed an accurate determination of the detachment force. This theoretical approach was validated using latex particles 2 μm in diameter.  相似文献

A method for catalytic activation was introduced by producing palladium aerosol nanoparticles via spark generation and then thermophoretically depositing the particles onto a flexible polyimide substrate through a hole in pattern mask, resulting in a line (24 μm in width) and a square (136 μm × 136 μm) patterns. After annealing, the catalytically activated substrate was placed into a solution for electroless copper deposition. Finally, copper micropatterns of a line (35 μm in width) and a square (165 μm × 165 μm) were formed only on the activated regions of the substrate. Both patterns had the height of 1.6 μm.  相似文献

Herein we present work directed toward understanding the mechanisms employed by Larrea tridentata (Creosote bush) to uptake and simultaneously defend against the presence of excess copper. The location and nature of copper in the plant have been studied on several length scales: greater than 10 μm (scanning electron microscopy), less than 10 μm (transmission electron microscopy) and atomic level structure and speciation (EXAFS and XANES). Two interesting results are apparent: creosote takes up or adsorbs copper from the soil in the Cu(II) oxidation state and transports it to the leaves where copper is found as Cu(I) and Cu(II). The transport agent appears to be a Cu phytochelatin. Additionally, creosote may be immobilizing and excreting copper via at least two additional mechanisms: storage of metals in vacuoles and excretion of copper into the sticky resinous substance found on the leaf surface. Creosote may also accumulate wind-blown particulates that can easily adhere to the resinous sticky surface of the plant. If, however, the particulates are <10 μm they may enter the leaf by respiration through the plant ‘stomata’ that have openings between 5 μm and 10 μm. As such, creosote may be a natural bio-indicator for airborne particulates that are <10 μm.  相似文献

 The wetting of well-characterized heterogeneous surfaces of block copolymers has been studied by low-rate dynamic contact angle measurements using axisymmetric drop-shape analysis. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to investigate the roughness, the heterogeneity and the chemical composition of the surfaces. By changing the block length of polysulfone and semifluorinated polyester segments in the block copolymers, the surface heterogeneity of thin films prepared on silicon wafers could be controlled. Tapping-mode AFM measurements showed that soft, hydrophobic domains of varying size on the submicrometer length scale were obtained on these surfaces (60–250 nm). The mean roughness was of the order of several nanometers. The results of the contact angle measurements showed that neither roughness nor heterogeneity had a significant effect on the advancing contact angle of water, at the scale of the features present; however, the contact angle hysteresis increased with increasing percentage of the soft domains. We assume that liquid retention by the solid upon retraction of the three-phase line is the main cause for the observed increase in contact angle hysteresis. Concerning the molecular composition of these block copolymer surfaces, angle-resolved XPS analysis showed a surface segregation of fluorine within the surface region. A direct correlation was found between the fluorine content of the block copolymer surfaces and the advancing contact angle of water. Received: 26 May 2000 Accepted: 3 January 2001  相似文献

We report on the development of a measuring method based on near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, which is able to determine the thickness of UV-cured coatings and which can be used for in-line monitoring in technical coating processes. In particular, acrylate coatings, which were applied to transparent polymer films with a typical thickness of 5–35 μm, were investigated. NIR spectra were recorded in transflection mode. Quantitative analysis of the spectral data was carried out with partial least square (PLS) regression. In-line measurements were performed on a pilot-scale roll coating machine at web speeds up to 50 m/min. It was shown that quantitative data with excellent precision (i.e. with a standard deviation lower than ±1 μm) and high time resolution (2.5 spectra/s) can be obtained.  相似文献

Hydrophilic laser-textured silicon wafers with natural oxide surfaces were rendered hydrophobic by depositing electrostatically charged submicrometer Teflon particles, a process termed as triboelectric Teflon adhesion. Silicon surfaces were micro-textured (~5 μm) by laser ablation using a nanosecond pulsed UV laser. By varying laser fluence, micro-texture morphology of the wafers could be reproduced and well controlled. Wetting properties of the triboelectrically charged Teflon-deposited surfaces were studied by measuring apparent static water contact angles and water contact angle hysteresis as a function of substrate roughness and the amount of Teflon deposited. A similar study was also performed on various micro-textured silicon carbide surfaces (sandpapers). If the average substrate roughness is between 15 and 60 μm, superhydrophobic surfaces can be easily formed by Teflon deposition with water contact angle hysteresis less than 8°. This environmentally benign solvent-free process is a highly efficient, rapid, and inexpensive way to render contact-charged rough surfaces hydrophobic or superhydrophobic.  相似文献

The wetting of two different model cellulose surfaces has been studied; a regenerated cellulose (RG) surface prepared by spin-coating, and a novel multilayer film of poly(ethyleneimine) and a carboxymethylated microfibrillated cellulose (MFC). The cellulose films were characterized in detail using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). AFM indicates smooth and continuous films on a nanometer scale and the RMS roughness of the RG cellulose and MFC surfaces was determined to be 3 and 6 nm, respectively. The cellulose films were modified by coating with various amounts of an anionic fluorosurfactant, perfluorooctadecanoic acid, or covalently modified with pentadecafluorooctanyl chloride. The fluorinated cellulose films were used to follow the spreading mechanisms of three different oil mixtures. The viscosity and surface tension of the oils were found to be essential parameters governing the spreading kinetics on these surfaces. XPS and dispersive surface energy measurements were made on the cellulose films coated with perfluorooctadecanoic acid. A strong correlation was found between the surface concentration of fluorine, the dispersive surface energy and the contact angle of castor oil on the surface. A dispersive surface energy less than 18 mN/m was required in order for the cellulose surface to be non-wetting (theta e>90 degrees ) by castor oil.  相似文献

The forces of interaction between a flat poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) surface and gold spheres (of radii 3–8 μm) were measured as a function of apparent surface separation for different intervening media. For air, fluorinated alkanes, and polar liquids the interaction between the surfaces was found to be attractive. With intervening liquids of low-polarity the interaction was found to be repulsive. This repulsion is attributed to a negative composite Hamaker coefficient leading to van der Waals repulsion.  相似文献

The spreading of ionic liquids on molecularly smooth solid surfaces has been little studied in the past. We show that the spreading behaviors of the two ionic liquids, [EMIM] ethyl sulfate and ECOENG™ 500, are well described by the combined molecular kinetic and hydrodynamic model of de Ruijter, de Coninck, and Oshanin [M.J. de Ruijter, J. de Coninck, G. Oshanin, Langmuir 15 (1999) 2209] with reasonable values for the molecular friction coefficient ζ, molecular displacement λ, and frequency K0 associated with contact line motion, as well as reasonable values for the microscopic cutoff a associated with hydrodynamic dissipation.  相似文献

Many applications would benefit from an understanding of the physical mechanism behind fluid movement on rough surfaces, including the movement of water or contaminants within an unsaturated rock fracture. Presented is a theoretical investigation of the effect of surface roughness on fluid spreading. It is known that surface roughness enhances the effects of hydrophobic or hydrophilic behavior, as well as allowing for faster spreading of a hydrophilic fluid. A model is presented based on the classification of the regimes of spreading that occur when fluid encounters a rough surface: microscopic precursor film, mesoscopic invasion of roughness and macroscopic reaction to external forces. A theoretical relationship is developed for the physical mechanisms that drive mesoscopic invasion, which is used to guide a discussion of the implications of the theory on spreading conditions. Development of the analytical equation is based on a balance between capillary forces and frictional resistive forces. Chemical heterogeneity is ignored. The effect of various methods for estimating viscous dissipation is compared to available data from fluid rise on roughness experiments. Methods that account more accurately for roughness shape better explain the data as they account for more surface friction; the best fit was found for a hydraulic diameter approximation. The analytical solution implies the existence of a critical contact angle that is a function of roughness geometry, below which fluid will spread and above which fluid will resist spreading. The resulting equation predicts movement of a liquid invasion front with a square root of time dependence, mathematically resembling a diffusive process.  相似文献

Silver (Ag) and zinc (Zn) are very powerful antimicrobial metals. Therefore, in this research, a high-throughput, sensitive, and rapid method was developed for the determination of Ag and Zn in microcapsules using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The sample preparation procedure employed simple microwave digestion of the microcapsules with 55.55% v/v HNO3 and 44.45% v/v H2O2. The method was applied to determine Ag and Zn in microcapsule samples of different sizes (120 and 450 μm) after their preparation with and without chitosan. Prepared microcapsules, after characterization, were bonded to a polymer carrier by sol-gel procedure and the materials were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and high-resolution optical microscopy. Significant differences were found in Ag and Zn levels between microcapsules samples prepared with and without chitosan. The results have shown that samples with chitosan had up to 20% higher levels of Zn than Ag: 120 μm microcapsules contained 351.50 μg/g of Ag and 85.51 μg/g of Zn, respectively. In contrast, samples prepared without chitosan showed larger overall variability: In microcapsules with a diameter of 120 μm, the amounts of antimicrobial metals were 98.32 μg/g of Ag and 106.75 μg of Zn, respectively. Moreover, 450 μm microcapsules contained 190.98 μg/g of Ag and 121.35 μg/g of Zn. Those quantities are high enough for efficient antimicrobial activity of newly prepared microcapsules, enabling the application of microcapsules in different antimicrobial coatings.  相似文献

We demonstrated the formation of calcite thin films on positively and negatively charged surfaces of a hydroxyapatite (HAp) electret coexisting with polyacrylic acid (PAA) and self-generating surface electric fields due to HAp electrets with electrically aligned dipoles. The cooperation of PAA and the self-generating surface electric field due to the electrets favored the formation of calcite thin films and acted remarkably on the negatively charged surface. Calcite thin films, 4–10 μm thick, with a shell-like microstructure were produced on the negatively charged surfaces with a small amount of PAA. In contrast, under other reaction conditions, calcite thin films with a fan-like structure in the cross section formed on the polarized substrates, and their thickness ranged from 2 to 7 μm. The films were composed of hemispheric- or flat island-shaped aggregates that were made of the calcite crystals that elongated along the c-axis. The morphology of the PAA–Ca2+ complex assembly, which adsorbed onto the polarized HAp substrates, was controlled by the balance of the spatial charge distribution in its structure and the properties of the self-generating surface electric field, which led to the different morphologies of the calcite thin films. We proposed that the formation mechanism of the films formed coexisting with PAA and the self-generating electric fields.  相似文献

Both surface microstructure and low surface energy modification play a vital role in the preparation of superhydrophobic surfaces. In this study, a safe and simple electrochemical method was developed to fabricate superhydrophobic surfaces of Zr-based metallic glasses with high corrosion resistance. First, micro–nano composite structures were generated on the surface of Zr-based metallic glasses by electrochemical etching in NaCl solution. Next, stearic acid was used to decrease surface energy. The effects of electrochemical etching time on surface morphology and wettability were also investigated through scanning electron microscopy and contact angle measurements. Furthermore, the influence of micro–nano composite structures and roughness on the wettability of Zr-based metallic glasses was analysed on the basis of the Cassie–Baxter model. The water contact angle of the surface was 154.3° ± 2.2°, and the sliding angle was <5°, indicating good superhydrophobicity. Moreover, the potentiodynamic polarisation test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy suggested excellent corrosion resistance performance, and the inhibition efficiency of the superhydrophobic surface reached 99.6%. Finally, the prepared superhydrophobic surface revealed excellent temperature-resistant and self-cleaning properties.  相似文献
