Title: Effects of hydrodynamic retardation and interparticle interactions on the self-assembly in a drying droplet containing suspended solid particles. Author: Lebovka NI, Khrapatiy S, Melnyk R, Vygornitskii M. Journal: Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys; 2014 May; 89(5):052307. PubMed ID: 25353800. Abstract: Self-assembly of particles, suspended in a drying droplet, were studied by the Monte Carlo method. The Brownian diffusion of particles was simulated accounting for the effect of hydrodynamic retardation and interparticle interactions. The model allowed for explaining formation of the "coffee ring" patterns even without accounting for the radial flows towards the three-phase contact line. Morphologies of the drying patterns and their dependence on interparticle interactions and concentration of particles are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
