When a droplet of water falls on a hot pan, it dances across the surface, skimming on a thin layer of steam like a tiny hovercraft; this is known as the Leidenfrost effect. But now, researchers ...

While a normal liquid droplet sticks and splats to a surface upon impact, burning droplets bounce back, propelled by a thin air cushion that forms beneath them. When a droplet of water falls on a ...

Built around Dolomite’s industry leading microfluidic products, the Micro Droplet Generation Systems provide a complete solution for droplet microfluidics, allowing users to seamlessly produce ...

Numerous experimental and modelling challenges must be addressed to explore the evaporative drying of aerosol droplets. The first challenge is one of measurement: how can such dynamic processes be ...

The study, "Connecting Droplet Adhesion with Sperm Kinematics: A New Paradigm in Sperm Quality Monitoring," was recently published in Advanced Materials Interfaces. By measuring that force using a ...
