采用声悬浮无容器处理技术, 研究了聚乙二醇-硫酸铵(PEG-AMS)双水相液滴的蒸发与相分离过程. 双水相液滴蒸发过程中, 液滴赤道直径的平方
$ {d}^{2} $ 随时间线性减小, 同时液滴横纵比$ \gamma $ 随时间线性增大. 初始处于单相区的液滴随着水分蒸发可以跨越到双相区, 进而发生相分离. 声悬浮状态下PEG-AMS双水相液滴的相分离分为3个阶段: 首先液滴内部形成富PEG相微滴, 然后富PEG相微滴发生碰撞凝并同时向外迁移, 最终液滴形成水平分层结构. 对比分析了不同横纵比及不同成分的双水相液滴的蒸发和相分离过程, 发现横纵比$ \gamma $ 越大, 富PEG相体积分数越小, 则液滴蒸发速率越快; 横纵比$ \gamma $ 越大, 富PEG相体积分数越大, 则液滴相分离越快. 这些发现有助于深入理解声悬浮条件下液滴的运动特性、蒸发动力学和相分离规律, 并为材料的声悬浮无容器制备和加工提供依据.As a ground-based experimental method for simulating the containerless state in space, acoustic levitation provides excellent containerless and contact-free conditions for studying droplet dynamics, including droplet evaporation and phase separation. Meanwhile, the nonlinear effects of the acoustic field, such as acoustic radiation pressure and acoustic streaming, bring novel characteristics to the droplet evaporation process and phase separation process. In this work, the evaporation and phase separation of aqueous two-phase-system (ATPS) droplet composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and ammonium sulfate (AMS) are investigated by a single-axis acoustic levitator through the combination of image acquisition and processing technique. During the evaporation of the ATPS droplet, the square of its equatorial diameter,$ {d}^{2} $ , decreases linearly with time, and its aspect ratio,$ \gamma $ , increases linearly with time. The PEG-AMS droplet initially in the single-phase regime can enter into the two-phase regime as the water evaporates, resulting in phase separation. The phase separation of the acoustically levitated PEG-AMS ATPS droplet includes three stages: first, a large number of PEG-rich globules form inside the ATPS droplet, and then these PEG-rich globules collide, coagulate and migrate outward, and finally a horizontal layered structure of the whole droplet comes into being. The evaporation constant, the evolution of the PEG-rich globules and the AMS-rich phase area, are analyzed for ATPS droplets with different initial aspect ratios and different initial compositions. It is concluded that the greater the initial aspect ratio and the smaller the volume fraction of the PEG-rich phase, the faster the evaporation rate of the droplet is; the greater the initial aspect ratio and the lager the volume fraction of the PEG-rich phase, the faster the phase separation is. Numerical simulations show that the acoustically levitated droplets with a large aspect ratio are subjected to greater acoustic radiation pressure on the surface, and that the corresponding sound field is more intense and the acoustic streaming is stronger, which accelerates the evaporation and phase separation of the levitated droplets. These findings contribute to deepening our understanding of the motion characteristics, evaporation dynamics and phase separation of acoustically levitated droplets, and provide a foundation for studying the containerless preparation and processing the materials under acoustic levitation.[1] Andrade M A B, Pérez N, Adamowski J C 2018 Braz.
