The effect of surfactant on the thickness of a thin film bounded by a solid surface and a moving liquid drop was investigated. We proposed a model so that parameters from the liquid drop can be stated in a parameter that acts as normal pressure to the thin film. Using the lubrication approximation, the model was reduced to a set of nonlinear partial differential equations in terms of the film thickness and surfactant concentration. Since we were interested in the role of the surfactant in lifting up the drop, we assumed that the density of the drop is higher than the density of the thin film. Numerically, the results show that the presence of the surfactant tends to delay the decrease of the film thickness insignificantly. However, when the surfactant was added into the system, it tends to significantly increase the film thickness for a certain range value of the normal pressure.

AbstractPP/nano-CaCO3 composites with different interfacial interaction were prepared by addition of compatibilizers with the same polar groups but different backbones. The non-isothermal and isothermal crystallization behavior of PP/nano- CaCO3 composites was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results indicated that the interfacial interaction between PP and nano-CaCO3 increased the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate of PP due to the heterogeneous nucleation of nano-CaCO3. The interfacial interaction between nano- CaCO3 and compatibilizer further increased the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate of PP and induced the formation of β-crystal of PP due to the synergistic effect of heterogeneous nucleation between nano-CaCO3 and compatibilizer. This synergistic effect of heterogeneous nucleation between nano- CaCO3 and compatibilizer depended on the interfacial interaction between compatibilizer and PP matrix. The increased compatibility between compatibilizer and PP matrix favoured the heterogeneous nucleation between nano-CaCO3 and compatibilizer

The mechanics of impact by a high-speed liquid jet onto a solid surface covered by a liquid layer is described. After the liquid jet contacts the liquid layer, a shock wave is generated, which moves toward the solid surface. The shock wave is followed by the liquid jet penetrating through the layer. The influence of the liquid layer on the side jetting and stress waves is studied. Damage sites on soda-lime glass, PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) and aluminium show the role of shear failure and cracking and provide evidence for analyzing the impact pressure on the wetted solids and the spatial pressure distribution. The liquid layer reduces the high edge impact pressures, which occur on dry targets. On wetted targets, the pressure is distributed more uniformly. Despite the cushioning effect of liquid layers, in some cases, a liquid can enhance material damage during impact due to penetration and stressing of surface cracks.
