Explosive evaporation unlocks new possibilities in 3D printing and chemical analysis

Researchers reveal how charged water droplets on frictionless surfaces spontaneously emit microdroplet jets, opening doors for nanofabrication and electrospray.

Explosive Evaporation Paves the Way for Advances in 3D Printing and

Water droplets, commonplace yet endlessly fascinating, harbor complex physical phenomena especially as they near evaporation. Recent groundbreaking research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences unravels the intricate dynamics of charged water droplets resting on frictionless surfaces. These droplets don’t simply vanish as they evaporate; rather, they undergo explosive Coulomb fissions, ejecting […]
