Abstract

Although the bubble contacting a uniformly superaerophilic surface has caused concern due to its application potential in various engineering equipment, such as mineral flotation, very little is known about the mechanism of how the bubble spreads on a surface with anisotropic superaerophilicity. To unveil this mystery, we experimentally studied the anisotropic behavior of a bubble (2 mm in diameter) spreading on the superaerophilic straight trajectories (SALTs) of different widths (0.5 mm–5 mm) in water using a high-speed shadowgraphy system. The 1–3 bounces mostly happened as the bubble approached the SALTs before its spreading. It is first observed that the bubble would be split into two highly symmetrical sub-bubbles with similar migration velocity in opposite directions during the anisotropic spreading. Two essential mechanisms are found to be responsible for the anisotropic spreading on the narrow SALTs (W ≤ 2 mm with two subregimes) and the wide SALTs (W ≥ 3 mm with four subregimes). Considering the combined effect of the surface tension effect of SALT and Laplace pressure, a novel model has been developed to predict the contact size r(t) as a function of time. The nice agreement between this model and our experiments reconfirms that the surface tension effect and Laplace pressure prevail over the hydrostatic pressure.
