Evaporation of Water from Airborne Droplets Containing Sodium Chloride, Mucin, and Surfactant

Abstract We conducted laboratory experiments to investigate the evaporation of water from airborne model respiratory droplets containing sodium chloride (NaCl) as an inorganic salt, mucin as a glycoprotein, and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) as a surfactant. The model respiratory droplets wer...
