Inkjet printing is the most widespread technological application of microfluidics. It is
characterized by its high drop productivity, small volumes, and extreme reproducibility. This …

The evaporation of a sessile droplet of liquid is a complex and multifaceted fundamental
topic of enduring scientific interest that is key to numerous physical and biological …

Wetting and evaporation of sessile droplets are ubiquitous in nature and of importance to
many industrial and everyday processes. While most of the research on sessile droplets has …

The evaporation of a sessile droplet spontaneously induces an internal capillary liquid flow.
The surface-tension driven minimisation of surface area and/or surface-tension differences …

Droplets abound in nature and technology. In general, they are multicomponent, and, when
out of equilibrium, have gradients in concentration, implying flow and mass transport …

Evaporation is an interfacial phenomenon in which a water molecule breaks the
intermolecular hydrogen (H−) bonds and enters the vapor phase. However, a detailed …

In an era defined by an insatiable thirst for sustainable energy solutions, responsible water
management, and cutting-edge lab-on-a-chip diagnostics, surface wettability plays a pivotal …

The evaporation of suspension droplets is the underlying mechanism in many surface-
coating and surface-patterning applications. However, the uniformity of the final deposit …

Drying drops of colloidal dispersions have attracted attention from researchers since the
nineteenth century. The multiscale nature of the problem involving physics at different …

Abstract Hypothesis Thermal Marangoni flow in evaporating sessile water droplets is much
weaker in experiments than predicted theoretically. Often this is attributed to surfactant …
