Abstract

The hydrodynamic process of ring formation has been utilized to encapsulate gold nanoparticles in the matrix of PHB using an ink jet printing technique. The coffee ring phenomenon on the polymer substrate was elucidated by geometrical evaluation, mathematical formulations and FESEM images.
