Abstract
In the development of micro/nano fluid control systems, fluid resistance has always been one of the key factors restricting its development. According to previous studies, it is found that the boundary slip effect of the solid-liquid interface can effectively reduce the resistance of the microfluid and improve the transport efficiency of the microfluid. The boundary slip length is mainly affected by surface wettability, roughness, and surface charge density. Among them, the influence mechanism of surface charge density on the boundary slip is the most complicated, and there is a lack of relevant research, and further investigation is needed. In this paper, we present research on quantification of effective slip length and surface charge density, where the roughness effect is considered. The electrostatic and hydrodynamic force data obtained from atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements were fitted and processed for comparative analysis. We obtained the variation of surface charge density and effective slip length when different oleophobic surface samples were immersed in ethylene glycol with different pH values. The effect of pH on the surface charge density and effective slip length was investigated by their variations. The mechanism of the effect of pH on the surface charge density was discussed. The experimental results show that in the ethylene glycol solution, no matter whether the pH value of the solution increases or decreases, the charge density of the surface with the same properties decreases, and the effective boundary slip length also shows a downward trend. In deionized water, the surface charge density and effective boundary slip length decreases with the decrease of PH value.
