Drop interaction with solid surfaces upon impact has been attracting a growing community of researchers who are focusing more and more on “complex” surfaces and “complex” drops. Recently, we are observing an emerging research trend related to the investigation of compound drop impact. Compound drops consist of two or more distinct continuous phases sharing common interfaces, surrounded by a third phase. Examples are core-shell and Janus drops. In this review, we address the fundamental aspects of compound drops impact and discuss the current challenges related to experimental testing and numerical simulations of multiphase fluid systems. Furthermore, we provide a perspective on the technological relevance of understanding and controlling compound drop impact, ranging from 3D printing to liquid separation for clean water and oil remediation.

Abstract

Drop interaction with solid surfaces upon impact has been attracting a growing community of researchers who are focusing more and more on “complex” surfaces and “complex” drops. Recently, we are observing an emerging research trend related to the investigation of compound drop impact. Compound drops consist of two or more distinct continuous phases sharing common interfaces, surrounded by a third phase. Examples are core-shell and Janus drops. In this review, we address the fundamental aspects of compound drops impact and discuss the current challenges related to experimental testing and numerical simulations of multiphase fluid systems. Furthermore, we provide a perspective on the technological relevance of understanding and controlling compound drop impact, ranging from 3D printing to liquid separation for clean water and oil remediation.
