Abstract

Generating microjets of highly viscous fluids is important to prevent blurring in key modern applications such as inkjet printing, but such technology is being held back because most printers handle only low-viscosity liquids, such as water-based ink. This study proposes a simple structure that uses an impulsive force to generate high-viscosity microjets of fluids similar even to honey, and with non-Newtonian properties. These results seem very promising for advancing state-of-the-art devices, including bioprinters and needle-free injection systems.
