In this work, the impact dynamics of high-viscous nanofluid droplets onto a solid surface has been investigated experimentally by means of high-speed camera visualization technique. We dispersed various nanoparticles (multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT), nano-graphene, and nano-graphite powder) into high-viscous base fluid (epoxy resin) to obtain the stable and homogenous nanofluids without surfactant additives. The well dispersed nanofluids show different degree of shear-thinning behaviors, and the shear-thinning properties of those fluids have been characterized by the power-law rheology model. The dynamic contact angle (DCA), transient dimensionless height, and transient contacting factor along with the spreading time under different Weber numbers (We) have been investigated. The results show that the nanofluid with a lower shear viscosity over the entire range of the shear rates results in larger variations of the contacting factor and the dimensionless height. The effect of surface wettability on droplet impact behaviors is more significant for the fluid with higher shear viscosity and less shear-thinning degree during the receding phase. The latter spreading and receding motions of the droplet with higher shear viscosity and shear-thinning degree are suppressed significantly, regardless of the Weber numbers in current study. Finally, a model based on experimental data has been proposed to predict the maximum spreading factor of high-viscous droplet impact on solid surface.
