摘要：
Surfactant adsorption plays an important role in microfluidics, which can be investigated by the dynamic evolution of interfacial tension. A differential pressure-based method is proposed to understand the basic laws of time-evolving interfacial tension and adsorption kinetics of ionic surfactants during the microfluidic droplet formation processes. Instantaneous flow rates and flow resistances are precisely analyzed based on auto-recognized microscopic images and the waveform of differential pressure, and the interfacial tension is determined from the Young-Laplace equation with a time resolution of 1/60 s. The concentration of surfactant at the liquid-liquid interface is obtained according to the Frumkin adsorption model, leading to an in-depth understanding of the adsorption rates and the apparent mass transfer rates of surfactants. The surfactant adsorption is demonstrated to obey the kinetic-controlled adsorption mechanism and therefore a measurement method for the adsorption rate constant is created to understand the kinetic characteristics of small-molecule ionic surfactants.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
