New Material Creation by Phase Separation in Liquid Mixtures Induced by Non-Uniform Electric Field

Abstract

The fractionation technology of liquid mixtures under the action of an externally applied inhomogeneous electric field and the device – a capacitive electromechanical energy transducer that implements this technology are considered in this article. The operational principle of a capacitive electromechanical energy transducer with liquid rotor is described. The conclusion on the possibility of applying this technology to the fractionation of oil containing emulsions is made.
