Here we design, construct, and characterize a compact Raman-spectroscopy-based sensor that measures the concentration of a water-methanol mixture. The sensor measures the concentration with an accuracy of 0.5% and a precision of 0.2% with a…
This paper presents measurements of the scintillation light yield and time profile for a number of concentration of water-based liquid scintillator, formulated from linear alkylbenzene (LAB) and 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO). We find that the…
We present a microfluidic method leading to accurate measurements of the mutual diffusion coefficient of a liquid binary mixture over the whole solute concentration range in a single experiment. This method fully exploits solvent…
Silanization bases on the adsorption, selfassembly and covalent binding of silane molecules onto surfaces, resulting in a densely packed self-assembled monolayer (SAM). Following standard recipes, however, the quality of the monolayer is…
Density measurements from single-sinker magnetic suspension densimeters need to be corrected to compensate for the magnetic effects of the measuring cell materials and the fluid on the coupling transmission system. While the magnetic effect…
We report on a microfluidic method that allows measurement of a small concentration of large contaminants in suspensions of solid micrometer-scale particles. To perform the measurement, we flow the colloidal suspension through a series of…
Despite the widespread use of zeolites in chemical industry, their formation process is not fully understood due to the complex and heterogeneous structure of traditional synthesis media. Hydrated silicate ionic liquids (HSILs) have been…
We present an approach to construct position-sensitive silicon detectors with an integrated cooling circuit. Tests on samples demonstrate that a very modest liquid flow very effectively cool the devices up to a power dissipation of over…
Understanding the acid-base behavior of silica surfaces is critical for many nanoscience and bio-nano interface applications. Silanol groups (SiOH) on silica surfaces exhibit two acidity constants--one as acidic as vinegar--but their…
We present an optomechanical device platform for characterization of optical, thermal, and rheological properties of fluids on the micron scale. A suspended silicon microdisk resonator with a vibrating mass of 100 fg and an effective…
This paper describes a simple and inexpensive method of measuring viscosity of a Newtonian fluid using the ball drop technique and an inexpensive point and shoot ~1000 frame per second camera. We successfully measured the viscosity of…
Being able to precisely characterize the mechanical properties of soft microparticles is essential for numerous situations from the understanding of the flow of biological fluids to the development of soft micro-robots. Here we present a…
Synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements have been conducted on aqueous mixtures of propan-2-ol (a.k.a. isopropanol, or 2-propanol), for alcohol contents between 10 and 90 molar %, from room temperature down to 230 K. Molecular dynamics…
We report results of a detailed experimental investigation into the drying of sessile droplets of aqueous poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) polymer solutions under various experimental conditions. Samples are prepared with a range of initial…
We report on a non-interacting technique for thermal characterization of fluids based on surface plasmon resonance interrogation. Using liquid volumes less than 20 micro liters we have determined the materials' thermo-optic coefficients…
Determination of the volume content of ethanol in the alcohol products in practice is usually determined by pycnometry, electronic densimetry, or densimetry using a hydrostatic balance in accordance with Commission Regulation No 2870/2000.…
By applying a slow curing process, we show that biomolecules can be incorporated via a simple process as liquid stable phases inside a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. The process is carried out under mild conditions with regards to…
In this paper, we have proposed a simple method of measuring the density of a solid material. We have utilized the pressure sensor of a smartphone as a pressure-measuring device. By measuring the values of pressure when a solid object is in…
A device to measure viscosity of dielectric oils was developed. The device is an inset to an autoclave system where the temperature and the pressure could be controlled. The device is capable of measuring viscosities up to 400C and 5000psi,…
We use the conductimetric method, adequate to electrolytes, to determine the lysozyme charge in lys-water and ternary lys-salt-water systems. We measured also the viscosities for the above binary and ternary systems in the same conditions…
