Outline of Research at the Start |
In this study we will determine how a flow in a liquid will affect the forces acting between two surfaces in solutions. We will determine the effect of flow on 1) hydrophobic surfaces stabilized by surfactants adsorbed via physical forces, 2) surfaces stabilized by surfactants adsorbed via chemical forces, and 3) on the structuring of particles between surfaces in aqueous solution. We will achieve this by using our newly developed combined Atomic Force Microscope-peristaltic pump system.

Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Many systems require particles or soft matter that are dispersed in liquids to flow through confined areas. Surface forces are well understood when the liquid contains no flow. However, it is unclear how a flow in a liquid affects surface forces. In this study, we used a combined Atomic Force Microscope-peristaltic pump system to determine how a flow in the liquid between two surfaces affects the forces of a system. We studied (1) the effect of the surfactant charge and concentration on the change in the forces between two charged surfaces in surfactant solutions by a liquid flow, (2) the effect of surface roughness on the change in the surface forces between two charged surfaces by a liquid flow, and (3) the effect of flow on surfaces stabilized by polymers. The results of this study will improve the performance of nano-technological or biological systems that require the movement of particles or soft matter through confined areas, e.g. ink-jet printing.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
液体に分散した粒子やソフトマターが狭い領域を流れる状況は実世界でよくみられるが、液体の流れが表面力にどのように影響するかは不明である。身の回りで一般的な系である(1)液体中の界面活性剤、(2)粗い表面、および(3)ポリマーについて、液流が表面力にどのように影響するかを評価した。その結果、液流が表面力に与える影響は系に依存することが分かった。本研究の結果は、狭い領域を通る粒子やソフトマター制御を必要とするナノテクノロジーや生物学的システムのパフォーマンスを改善すると期待できる。
