Surface tension anomaly observed for chemically-modified Janus particles at the air/water interface.
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science(2020)
摘要
The behavior of Janus particles fabricated from core silica particles decorated with gold nanoparticles on one hemisphere is studied at the air/water interface. An unexpected reduction in the effective surface tension is observed in the presence of these chemically-modified Janus particles. Experiments on the interfacial behavior of a variety of control particles, including the physically-modified Janus particles made from the same core silica particles coated with a thin gold layer, do not exhibit significant surface tension effects. We hypothesize that the chemical modification of particles in form of a Janus structure is needed to alter the surface tension and attribute the surfactant-like behavior of these particles to the presence of immersion forces.
