Effect of a polymeric compound layer on jetting dynamics produced by bursting bubbles.

ABSTRACT: Jetting dynamics from bursting bubbles play a key role in mediating mass and momentum transport across the air-liquid interface, and have attracted widespread interest from researchers across disciplines. In marine environments, this phenomenon has drawn considerable attention due to its role in releasing biochemical contaminants, such as extracellular polymeric substances, into the atmosphere through aerosol production. These biocontaminants often exhibit non-Newtonian characteristics, yet the physics of bubble bursting with a rheologically complex layer at the bubble-liquid interface remains largely unexplored. In this study, we experimentally investigate the jetting dynamics of bubble bursting events in the presence of such a polymeric compound layer. Using bubbles coated by a polyethyl
