Assumptions: Schematic of surfactant-driven spreading problem Marangoni spreading Fingering

Effects: Marangoni stresses Capillarity Diffusion (bulk and surface) Sorption kinetics Solubility Micellar formation and breakup Nonlinear E.O.S.

Tendency for two-front formation increases with increasing R and M. Large concentration gradients at edges of drop and secondary fronts.

© Imperial College LondonPage 17 Fingering: Open questions Is this the best way of modelling the presence of micelles? What is the mechanism that drives the instability? How good is the agreement between theory and experiment?

© Imperial College LondonPage 18 Autophobing Results I:  LW = 4,  P = 4 Rim formation Craster & Matar, Langmuir, 2007

© Imperial College LondonPage 19 Autophobing Results II(a):  LW = 16,  P = Onset of retraction Early times Craster & Matar, Langmuir, 2007

© Imperial College LondonPage 20 Autophobing Results II(b):  LW = 16,  P = Dewetting Retraction Late times Craster & Matar, Langmuir, 2007

© Imperial College LondonPage 21 Autophobing Results III:  LW = 16,  P = Dewetting Retraction Above CMC Craster & Matar, Langmuir, 2007

© Imperial College LondonPage 23 Autophobing Results IV:  LW = -1.1,  P = Film rupture Craster & Matar, Langmuir, 2007

© Imperial College LondonPage 24 Autophobing: Open questions Is this the best of modelling the effect of surfactant on intermolecular interactions? Are we missing relevant physics? Should the structural component of  be taken into account (esp. for C > CMC)? How does this change the predictions and the agreement with experiments?

© Imperial College LondonPage 25 Superspreading Surfactant-assisted spreading on hydrophobic substrates Only certain surfactants act as “superspreaders” Effect strongest for C > CAC R ~ tvs.R ~ t 1/10 or R ~ t 1/4 Mechanism: –Marangoni flow? –Unusual structure of trisiloxanes? –Direct adsorption of micelles? –Intermolecular effects near the contact line?

© Imperial College LondonPage 26 Superspreading: Open questions What is the mechanism? What happens at the advancing contact line? Are structural disjoining pressures important (esp. for C > CMC)? If so, how do we build them into our lubrication theory-based models? What molecular level information do we need?
