Microfluidic Capillary-Based Device for Double Emulsion Droplet Generation
Masterthesis
22.08.2023
Microfluidics offers the possibility to produce capsules at a high repetition rate while simultaneously fulfilling the quality criteria. Usually, in the first step, a droplet is formed within a second one and transported within a carrier phase. This is a so-called double emulsion droplet. In a second step, the outer droplet is solidified, e.g., by UV-curing. Finally, the liquid of the inner droplet is removed, resulting in a dry, solid shell.
Classical microfluidic approaches for double emulsion production are capillary based. The goal of this Master thesis is to build up a microfluidic setup using capillaries and find suitable parameters for its geometrical dimensions and flow rates of the fluids.
The thesis will be written in co-operation with Focus Energy GmbH.
