Methods: A 2D microfluidic structure was established using COMSOL Multiphysics 6.2 simulation software. The two-phase level set method was adopted to investigate the effects of flow focusing structure and coaxial microfluidic channel structure on the generation of polymer microspheres. By establishing a numerical model of polymer microsphere generation in a flow focusing microchannel, the generation of microdroplets and the effects of different control parameters on the size, frequency and stability of microspheres were systematically studied. Results: In the focusing microchannel, the generation of droplets is mainly due to the squeezing and shearing of the continuous phase on the dispersed phase. Keeping other factors constant, when the interfacial tension increases, the size of the polymer microspheres increases and the frequency decreases;when the viscosity of the dispersed phase increases, the size of the polymer microspheres decreases but the generation frequency increases, and the faster the viscosity of the droplets increases, the longer the generation time of the polymer microspheres;when the viscosity of the continuous phase increases, the size of the polymer microspheres increases, the boundaries of the microspheres are clear and the stability increases;when the flow rate of the continuous phase increases, the size of the polymer microspheres decreases but the generation frequency increases by nearly 2.1 times. When the droplet size is small, the size and frequency of polymer microsphere generation can be changed by appropriately increasing the interfacial tension and the flow rate of the continuous phase. Conclusion: The use of COMSOL software to study the generation and manipulation mechanisms of polymer microspheres in different microchannels of microfluidic control, revealing the flow mechanism and laws of microfluidic droplets, meets the different generation requirements of polymer microspheres and overcomes the limitations of real experiments. It has important practical significance for the preparation of polymer microspheres used for adsorbing dye wastewater.展开更多
