Oblique drop impact

Abstract We study the dynamics of two phospholipid monolayers brought into contact by oblique drop impact on a liquid surface and bilayer/multilayer formation. Drop impact without monolayers shows that for low impact angles (a < 23°) and low drop velocities the drop spreads as a thin sheet on the target liquid without immersion and mixing of the two liquids. When drop and target liquid surface are covered with monolayers, bilayer/multilayer formation is expected. The composition and mechanical properties of the monolayers can strongly influence the pattern of drop impact and bilayer/multilayer formation. Monolayers with either pure satu-... [Pg.80]

To conclude we can say that bilayer structures can be formed by oblique drop impact on monolayers. The details of their generation will be shown in the following sections. [Pg.84]

Before discussing our results regarding bilayer formation by oblique drop impact on different monolayers we have to take into account the differences between saturated and... [Pg.86]
