Event Info HP-NTU Corp Lab Tech Talk: Microfluidic Investigations of Capillary Flow and Surface Phenomena in Porous Polymeric Media for 3D PrintingHP-NTU Digital Manufacturing Corp Lab is pleased to have Dr. Katrina Donovan, Lecturer in Materials and Metallurgical Engineering at South Dakota School of Mines & Technology, to share with us for our next TechTalk. She will be sharing about the microfluidic investigations of capillary flow and surface phenomena in porous polymeric media for 3D Printing.
About the speaker: Katrina is a Materials Scientist specializing in experimental design and technique development for soft materials, complex fluids, and surface phenomena. She have a wide range of experience in rheological, thermal, structural, and molecular characterization that she leverages fundamentally for academic purposes as well as industrially for applications. Designing experiments and creating novel techniques to answer fundamental questions that drive applications and technology forward captivates her interest.
Date: 27 October 2020, Tuesday (10.00am to 11.00am) (SGT)
Synopsis Additionally, Washburn capillary rise studies provide quantitative information about the free energy of a surface, specifically, contact angle. Temperature dependent studies were performed to probe the impact of fluids and polymeric powders interactions in elevated temperatures. An unintentional advantage of this novel imaging technique is that the experiment is straightforward, cheap, and time efficient; aptly described as “frugal science”.
