Abstract The properties of droplets produced by existing on-demand injection systems are typically determined by the
nozzle diameter, i.e., only droplets with size larger than this diameter can be obtained. To solve this problem,
a system for electric field-driven droplet injection and deposition was developed, and the related performances
were compared with those of a standard pneumatic system. The results show that the diameter of droplets generated accordingly can be significantly smaller than the nozzle diameter. In particular, the effects of frequency and
duty ratio on the number of droplets were studied by assuming microcrystalline wax More >
