Area of Science:

  • Surface Science and Adhesion Physics
  • Materials Science and Engineering
  • Nanotechnology and Particle Interactions

Background:

  • Understanding adhesion forces is critical in various fields, including materials science, nanotechnology, and fiber technology.
  • Existing models often simplify particle and surface geometries, limiting their applicability to real-world scenarios.
  • The influence of particle shape and contact duration on van der Waals adhesion requires detailed investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop first-principle-based macroscopic models for van der Waals adhesion forces.
  • To analyze adhesion for diverse particle shapes (spherical, disk-like, deformed slice) interacting with an infinite cylinder.
  • To investigate the impact of contact time and particle deformation on adhesion forces and interaction energy.

Main Methods:

  • Derivation of analytical expressions for van der Waals adhesion force and interaction energy.
  • Modeling of four distinct geometric configurations: spherical particle/cylinder, disk-like particle/cylinder, edgewise disk/cylinder, and deformed slice/cylinder.
  • Simulation and analysis of the influence of contact time on adhesion for cylindrical fibers and disk-shaped particles.

Main Results:

  • Models accurately predict trends in adhesion force and interaction energy for different geometries.
  • Contact time significantly impacts adhesion, potentially causing particle deformation.
  • The deformed slice/cylinder model, representing long contact times, yields the highest adhesion force and interaction energy.

Conclusions:

  • The developed models provide accurate macroscopic descriptions of van der Waals adhesion for various particle-cylinder geometries.
  • Particle deformation and extended contact duration are key factors that substantially enhance adhesion.
  • These findings are vital for predicting and controlling adhesion in systems involving fibers and particles.
