What is Continuous Drop Formation at a Capillary Tip and Drop Deformation in a Flow Channel about?

Emulsions are meta-stable systems of liquids dispersed in another immiscible matrix fluid. They are encountered in a large variety of application areas including food, cosmetics, pharmaceutics and polymers. The mean size and the size distribution of the droplets represent important characteristics of an emulsion which affect the emulsion quality significantly. These physical properties are adjusted by a proper choice of the dispersing apparatus and the process conditions. Examples of well-established dispersing devices include rotor-stator systems or homogenizers. In these operation units droplets are subject to shear and elongational stresses and fragment into smaller droplets provided that the flow-generated stresses are supercritical. Generally, the dispersed droplets underlie a certain size distribution. Recently, the demand for almost monodisperse emulsions has been rising due to new advances in the production of microcapsules or specially structured multiphase systems.In this study an emulsification process was developed aiming to generate monodisperse emulsions. The disperse phase was injected via a capillary into a co-flowing matrix fluid. The capillary was positioned on th
