Advanced visualization analysis in electrostatic multiphase flow as in ionic liquid electrospray for space thruster or electrostatic control of cellulose fibril flow for high strength and high elastic cellulose material synthesis has been introduced. A detail analysis of ionic liquid electrospray formation has been conducted by high speed imaging, clarifying the relation between ejected droplet velocity and diameter. Furthermore, the transient behavior of cellulose fibril flow by applying AC electric field has been shown. Fibrils are successfully aligned in parallel to the electric field. The fibril alignment degree was quantitatively evaluated using optical characteristics of cellulose fibril.
