Pattern Formation in Heterostructured Gel by the Ferrocyanide-lodate-Sulfite Reaction
Pattern formation in the reaction-diffusion systems for the ferrocyanide-iodate-sulfite reaction has been investigated. Previous studies have been conducted in a uniform medium. However, in this study, we reported the pattern formation in heterostructured gels with different network densities. The chemical states of the gel depend on the diffusivity, which in turn depends on the network density of the gel. Consequently, a pH pattern reflecting the heterostructured gel emerged. Furthermore, adjusting the condition produces novel patterns in the heterostructured gel.
