Abstract

The paper presents the principles of our new single bubble generator, which allows a precise control of bubble formation in pure liquids and surfactant solutions, i.e., their detachment frequency and the adsorption time at their motionless surface. We show that the bubbles with equilibrium size can be produced at the capillaries of various orifice diameters (0.022-0.128 mm) on demand and with outstanding reproducibility. Moreover, it is shown that a fully automatized and programmable bubble trap, synchronized with bubble detachment frequency, can be used to (i) control the radius of the released bubble and (ii) precisely adjust the initial adsorption coverage over the surface of detaching bubble, and hence to study the influence of adsorption coverage degree on kinetics of dynamic adsorption layer formation at the rising bubble surface.
