Table 1 Interfacial tensions at \(T_\textrm{a}=120^{\circ }\text {C}\) from literature (left column) and from hybrid construction (6) for large cloaked droplets (right column) for SG184 and SG 186. Values in the right column for SG186 are based on Young angle along the shorter/longer axis; the errors in parenthesis additionally represent the uncertainty of the reference value, \(\gamma _\textrm{as}\) for SG184 and SG186.
Interface | Surface tension \([\text {mN m}^{-1}]\) | Surface tension \([\text {mN m}^{-1}]\) | |
|---|---|---|---|
Literature | SG184 | SG186 | |
PDMS-air, \(\gamma _\textrm{as}\) | \(15\,(\pm 1)\) | \(15\,(\pm 1)\) | |
PS-air, \(\gamma _{\textrm{a}\ell }\) / \(\gamma _{\textrm{a}\ell }^c\) | \(19.2 \pm 0.1\,(\pm 1.3)\) | \(18.8/17.8\,(\pm 1.2)\) | |
PS-PDMS, \(\gamma _{\ell \textrm{s}}\) | \(0-10\) 56 | \(4.2 \pm 0.1 \,(\pm 0.3)\) | \(3.8/2.8\,(\pm 0.2)\) |
