Dynamic Characteristics of Janus Drop Impact on the Inner Surfaces of Cylinders

This study numerically investigates the spreading and retracting dynamics of Janus drops on the inner surfaces of cylinders using the Volume of Fluid method. The results indicate that increasing surface curvature enhances spreading in the axial direction and promotes the detachment of the low-viscosity water component, particularly under conditions of high viscosity ratio and Weber number. A regime map is constructed to identify the critical conditions for separation, revealing that surfaces with intermediate curvature exhibit higher separation efficiency compared to those with high curvature. The temporal evolution of axial momenta in the x and z directions highlights the role of viscosity contrast in inducing asymmetric deformation. A scaling law for residence time is proposed as a function of Weber number, which aligns well with simulation results in the high Weber number regime. These findings provide fundamental insights for optimizing surface curvature and fluid composition to enhance drop separation and may benefit applications such as selective liquid extraction, surface cleaning, and microfluidic manipulation.

Effect of Thiol Coating Time on the Morphology and Wettability of Copper Nanowires
Wonshik Kwak, Kihwan Kim, Handong Cho, Woonbong Hwang
J. Korean Soc. Precis. Eng. 2018;35(4):457-461.
Published online April 1, 2018
DOI: https://doi.org/10.7736/KSPE.2018.35.4.457
A study of super-hydrophobic surface originated from the analysis of lotus leaf in the nature and fabrication method of super-hydrophobic surface on copper substrate has been researched for, showed functional surfaces with anti-corrosion. However, since copper nanowires decomposed during thiol coating, it is necessary to reseach on the relation with morphology of copper nanowires and thiol coating time. In this study, the research is all about the effect of thiol coating time on wettability of copper nanowires surface. Copper hydroxide nanowires were made up by oxidation using dipping method and a polymer layer was formed on nanowires using thiol coating. Surface characteristics were assessed using scanning electron microscopy and liquid contact angles. The conclusion showed relation for wettability of thiol coated copper hydroxide nanowires with thiol coating time and proposed method would be favorable for anti-corrosion functional surface.
