Description

A kind of utilization converts the method that microfluidic channel prepares millimeter grade particles
Technical field
The invention belongs to micro-/milli fluidics application field, and in particular to one kind prepares milli using microfluidic channel is converted The method of scale particles.
Background technology
Micro-capsule and laser fusion target fuel are loaded in microreactor, realizing controlled-release medicine and catalyst carrier, bioactivity kind In the fields such as container, hundred microns to several millimeters particles/drop are widely used.Traditional stirring, spraying and film emulsification etc. " from Top is downward " material and chemical method be difficult to batch and prepare that single dispersing degree is high and bulky grain/drop of structure-controllable, it is and past More, the time and effort consuming toward step.It is near during the last ten years, micro-/milli fluidics be the various fields applications such as biological, chemistry and material and One of focus of research.Successively T-shaped passage is developed(T-shaped junction), focus channel(Flow-focusing)With Co-flow pathway(Co-flowing)Deng the microchannel of three basic forms of it, these three basic channel designs decide three kinds of basic flows Type, its flow pattern feature, miniflow bulk-mode and drop forming mechanism have obtained widely studied, in microring array and micron particles/liquid Dripping is standby etc., and aspect is widely used.Compare, the micro-/milli fluidics of " bottom-up " for particle/drop particle diameter with it is several What regulation and control have unique advantage, further investigate its application technology in terms of millimeter magnitude particle/drop preparation have it is important Realistic meaning.
Compared with prepared by micro/nano level particle/drop, the preparation of millimeter grade particles/drop need to generally face large volume flow Great risk that flow velocity fluctuation, the rheological characteristic of big emulsion itself, thermodynamic phase and buoyancy effect for bringing etc. are caused and Uncontrollability.To prepare grade polymer microballoon and microcapsules, three nozzle milk particles of American National ignition center development occur Device technology, had once been once a kind of classical way of association area, but the requirement of its assembly precision is high, is gradually substituted.Chinese engineering Physical study institute has successively developed double-T shaped, double ten types, the double-Y shaped and dual micro-fluidic passage technology of coflow formula.In contrast, double Y It is possible to prevente effectively from hydrodynamics stationary point, flow field is more sane, control and whole drop body for different phase fluids for type passage Long-pending ability of regulation and control is stronger, is advantageously implemented the accurate customization of size and particle geometric.In addition W. Engl et al. focus on commercial quantities Change and reduces cost, utilize " tubular type milli stream control " to prepare millimeter particles and drop, and emphasized development correlation technique have compared with Big prospect and practical significance.However, micro-fluidic chip channel geometry is continuous-stable and forming drop and effectively controlling it to tie The key of structure and size.At present, an applicable target size range of chip is narrower, and channel geometry is fixed, and user is difficult to root It is multiplex according to the core of practical application request one.Meanwhile, the preparation processing technology of micro-fluidic chip is complicated, the bonding and photoetching skill of microchannel Art threshold is higher, costly, assembling not easy to remove, and inconvenience cleaning, the repeat usage of chip is low, and service life is shorter.Especially It is that conventional method making complex pipeline is extremely difficult, even the laser direct-writing and 3D printing technique of developed recently, in chip All there is severe bottleneck in the application in preparation, printing has particular/special requirement to material, and process is slow, it is difficult to realize fine and close bubble-free, Optical clarity is very poor.
Currently, development is needed badly a kind of using the method that microfluidic channel prepares millimeter grade particles/drop is converted, using simple Processing and packaging technology obtain complex different type microfluidic channel, and low-consumption high-efficiency a, core is changeable, and a core is multiplex, surely Determine continuous batch and obtain the broader monodisperse particles/drop of size range.
