Production and Reconfiguration of Double Emulsions by Temperature Control

Jin-Kun Guo,
Haojie Wang,
Fengjiao Chang
et al.

Abstract: Double emulsions are of great importance for both science and engineering. However, the production of multicore double-emulsion droplets is challenging and normally requires sophisticated microfluidic devices, which limits their availability to broader communities. Here, we propose a simple, precise, and scalable batch method for producing double emulsions with monodispersed multicores at milliliter per minute rates, using the most common means in laboratory, temperature. By rapidly cooling liquid crystal emul… Show more

“…Laser injection technology is an emerging technique for customizing the internal architecture of a droplet in a bottom–up manner [ 28 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 ]. The microfabrication is initiated by the injection of nanoscale water droplets into a pre-selected site on the surface of a stabilized LC (one type of soft matter) droplet through laser irradiation; no syringe or nozzle is required ( Figure 6 a).…”

“…Fortunately, the laser injection technology provides an available tool to overcome the surface confinement and loading water droplet cores into the LC droplet through a pre-selected site. Therefore, it achieves complete intervention in the self-assembly dynamics of the injected droplets by means of injecting them into a host LC droplet with a stable orientational field [ 28 , 55 , 61 ]. This eliminates the barrier to machining the internal architecture of a droplet in a bottom–up manner based on self-assembly, resulting in high machining accuracy.…”
