This article reviews acoustic microfluidics: the use of acoustic fields, principally ultrasonics,
for application in microfluidics. Although acoustics is a classical field, its promising, and …

Starch is affected by several limitations, eg, retro-gradation, high viscosity even at low
concentrations, handling issues, poor freeze–thaw stability, low process tolerance, and gel …

Updated, revised, and restructured to reflect the latest advances in science and applications,
the fourth edition of this best-selling industry and research reference covers the fundamental …

Surface acoustic wave atomization is a rapid means for generating micron and submicron
aerosol droplets. Little, however, is understood about the mechanisms by which these …

In many applications where small, similar-sized droplets are needed, ultrasonic nebulizers
are employed. Little is known about the mechanism of nebulization, for example about what …

Ultrasonic atomization is used to produce fine liquid mists with diameter ranges below 100
nm. We investigated the effect of the frequency on the size distribution of ultrasonic mist. A …

In recent years, starch nanoparticles (SNPs) have attracted growing attention due to their
unique properties as a sustainable alternative to common nanomaterials since they are …

The present work deals with measurements of the droplet size distribution in an ultrasonic
atomizer using photographic analysis with an objective of understanding the effect of …

Gold nanoparticle and gold/semiconductor nanocomposite thin films have been deposited
using aerosol assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD). A preformed gold colloid in …

Generating aerosol droplets via the atomization of thin aqueous films with high frequency
surface acoustic waves (SAWs) offers several advantages over existing nebulization …
