Description

Desktop type micro-droplet chemical reaction experiment platform based on super-hydrophobic material
Technical Field
The invention relates to the fields of chemistry, materials and electromechanics, in particular to a desktop type micro-droplet chemical reaction experiment platform based on a super-hydrophobic material and an experiment method using the same.
Background
Conventional chemical reactions often require the consumption of liquid chemical reagents in volumes of tens, hundreds, or even larger volumes during chemical analysis and detection. The use of a large amount of liquid chemical reagents increases the experimental cost and the waste liquid treatment cost; the cleaning of the chemical reaction vessel can cause the waste and pollution of a large amount of water resources and increase the wastewater treatment cost; the consumption of a large amount of chemical reagents causes environmental pollution and energy waste in the processes from production to transportation and use. Reducing the consumption of liquid chemical agents from the source can effectively solve these problems.
Microfluidic technology is a common way of performing microchemical reactions at present, uses microchannels (with dimensions of tens to hundreds of microns) to process or manipulate micro-fluids, has the characteristics of miniaturization and integration, and is also commonly referred to as microfluidic chips and lab-on-a-chip. By using microfluidic technology, chemical reactions (including sample introduction, mixing, reaction, separation, detection) can be integrated into a microchip. The microfluidic chip is generally manufactured on materials such as silicon wafers, glass, polydimethylsiloxane, polymethyl methacrylate and the like by photoetching, etching and machining methods, and has the defects of high price of manufacturing equipment, complex preparation process and the like, so that the manufacturing cost is high, and the microfluidic chip cannot be applied to common micro-droplet chemical reaction.
In recent years, the development of a micro-droplet reaction by controlling the wettability of the material surface has been attracting attention. The Chinese invention patent (CN105833814B) provides a liquid drop self-driven type micro-reactor, which provides a driving force for micro-liquid drops to realize the accurate control of the volume ratio of the liquid drops, and the full mixing and the rapid transportation of the liquid drops in a micro-reactor flow channel through the gradient wettability design of a hydrophilic-hydrophobic coating. However, the preparation of the micro flow channel still adopts the mask photoetching method of the traditional micro flow chip, the surface treatment process is very complicated, and the preparation cost is difficult to reduce. Chinese patent CN110523451A prepares a magnetic elastic super-hydrophobic substrate, and by applying an external magnetic field, the surface of a reactor generates elastic depressions, and the conveying, rotary stirring and mixing of micro-droplets are realized by utilizing the synergistic effect of gravity and the Laplace force of the droplets. The material and the method only carry out the operation of the liquid drop on the surface of the magnetic elastic super-hydrophobic substrate, can not realize the transfer and the extraction of the liquid drop in a three-dimensional space, have low stirring and mixing efficiency of the liquid drop, and can not be used for the actual chemical reaction of the micro-liquid drop. Chinese patent CN207745854U designs a micro-reactor based on magnetic liquid marble, which controls the magnetic liquid marble with super-hydrophobic/oil characteristics by controlling the magnetic field to induce the violent convection of the liquid inside the marble and strengthen the disturbance, so that the reactants are fully mixed. According to the method, the reaction liquid drops and the magnetic particle powder are mixed, and the mixed magnetic particles can interfere the chemical reaction of the micro-liquid drops and influence the reaction result. Yang et al (Advanced materials, 2018, 30(9), 1704912) adopt 3D printing technology to prepare a droplet microreactor with a high-adhesion whisk microstructure, and carry out a micro-droplet reaction experiment of ferric trichloride and sodium hydroxide, but the microreactor has a complex manufacturing process and high cost, cannot be subjected to oscillation operation in the reaction process, and has a single function. So far, a low-cost method and a low-cost device capable of realizing carrying, transferring or transferring and mixing reaction of micro-droplets are not reported, which is also a technical difficulty for realizing chemical reaction of micro-droplets at present.
