An understanding of the complex interplay of factors, including particle size, concentration, contact angle, surface tension, optimal ratios and compatibility of the components, is necessary to improve effectiveness of the formulations [40].
The interdependence of surface tension and density ratio is a weakness of pseudo-potential based lattice Boltzmann models (LB).
There were no significant differences in hydrophilicity, surface tension, the mole ratio of adsorbed fibrinogen to adsorbed albumin, and the amount of platelet adhesion between the glutaraldehyde- and genipin-fixed tissues.
This model specifies an explicit relationship between surface tension and the ratio of effective adhesion to cortical tension.
The relationship between normalized surface tension and channel aspect ratio, approximated for cases in which h/2R is negligibly small, is plotted as an inset in Figure 3. Figure 3 Normalized surface tension required for flow of liquid metal.
Several parameters including feed moisture, powder moisture, drying ratio, productivity, surface tension, density and viscosity of feed were determined experimentally.
The proposed model is capable of adjusting the surface tension independently of the density ratio.
Fixation of biological tissue with glutaraldehyde or genipin significantly increased its hydrophilicity and surface tension and reduced its mol ratio of adsorbed fibrinogen to adsorbed albumin as well as the amount of adhered platelet.
It is found that when the contact width is comparable with the ratio of surface tension to elastic modulus, surface tension significantly alters the pressure distribution in the contact region and the contact width.
Such linear coarsening is attributed to viscous flow inside the bicontinuous phases, and quantitative measurements show that the growth rate is well explained by the ratio of surface tension over viscosity.
