Evaporation and deposition of inclined colloidal droplets

Abstract: Colloidal droplets on flat solid substrates commonly leave symmetric ring-like deposits due to coffee-ring flows during evaporation. On inclined substrates, droplet shapes may become asymmetric by gravity. On this basis, it is not clear how their evaporation dynamics and final deposits are changed depending on inclination. Here we explore evaporation and deposition dynamics of colloidal droplets on inclined substrates, mainly by controlling colloidal particle size, substrate inclination, and relative humidity,… Show more

“…Another determining factor is the gravitational sedimentation of the particles. Assuming a creeping flow, 58 the sedimentation velocity can be calculated by the well-known Stokes law:where ρ p and ρ f are the densities of the colloidal particles and fluid, respectively, D is the particle diameter, μ is the fluid viscosity, and ϕ is the substrate inclination angle. However, sedimentation velocity should be comparable to the capillary velocity to contribute to the deposition of CNTs.…”

“…Although due to the lower contact angle, the local evaporation rate is higher at the top contact line compared with the bottom one, and the sedimentation velocity will compete with the capillary flow and decrease the effective velocity toward the top contact line, resulting in a thinner deposited line. 57,58…”

“…The Marangoni recirculating flow has complex influences on the deposition pattern . Besides, the deposition pattern can be affected by the Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO) attraction between the particles and the substrate, the sedimentation effect of gravity, , and the interfacial capture effect . Therefore, the comprehensive effects of these complex convections and dynamic processes determine the morphology of the final deposition patterns.…”

“…20 Besides, the deposition pattern can be affected by the Derjaguin−Landau−Verwey−Overbeek (DLVO) attraction between the particles and the substrate, 21 the sedimentation effect of gravity, 22,23 and the interfacial capture effect. 24 Therefore, the comprehensive effects of these complex convections and dynamic processes determine the morphology of the final deposition patterns. Although a lot of work has been conducted to suppress the coffee ring and obtain uniform patterns by regulating the Marangoni effect, 25 wettability of substrate, 26 acoustic fields, 27 and particle shapes, 28 the disordered microstructures and a large number of defects are inevitable for these patterns.…”
