A thermodynamic model of contact angle hysteresis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2017
When a three-phase contact line moves along a solid surface, the contact angle no longer corresponds to the static equilibrium angle but is larger when the liquid is advancing and smaller when the liquid is receding. The difference between the advancing and receding contact angles, i.e., the contact angle hysteresis, is of paramount importance in ...

Apparent contact angle and contact angle hysteresis on liquid infused surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Matter, 2017
The apparent contact angle and contact angle hysteresis of a droplet on liquid infused surfaces have strong dependence on the relative size between the droplet and its surrounding wetting ridge.

Studying of the Contact Angle Hysteresis on Various Surfaces

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
This paper is devoted to investigation of the contact angle hysteresis on various surfaces. It was carried out by two different methods: measuring the advancing and the receding contact angles and measuring the contact angles at water droplet evaporation

Contact angle hysteresis in a microchannel: Statics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Fluids, 2019
We study contact angle hysteresis in a chemically heterogeneous microchannel by tracking static meniscus configurations in the microchannel upon varying the volume of liquid. We first construct a graphical force balance similar to a previous approach by Joanny and de Gennes for this system, though here with a straight contact line.

On the lifetimes of evaporating droplets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The complete description of the lifetime of a droplet on a solid substrate evaporating in a 'stick–slide' mode is obtained. The unexpectedly subtle relationship between the lifetime of such a droplet and the lifetimes of initially identical droplets ...

Effect of contact angle hysteresis on measuring matric suction in unsaturated sandy soil

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
The contact angle plays an important role in matric suction of unsaturated soils, but few studies consider the effect of contact angle hysteresis on matric suction. In this paper, taking sandy soil as an example, the influence of contact angle hysteresis

Modeling the deformation and breakup of a surfactant-coated droplet on a roughness solid surface in shear flow

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
A surfactant-coated droplet attached to a rough wall subjected to shear flow is investigated using a coupled lattice Boltzmann with the finite difference method, where a contact angle hysteresis model is introduced into the method to characterize the ...

Effects of Contact Angle on the Hysteresis Effect of Soil-Water Characteristic Curves during Dry-Wet Cycles

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The hysteresis characteristics of soil-water characteristic curves (SWCCs) under dry-wet cycling conditions are very important for understanding unsaturated soil properties, so it is crucial to propose an accurate and efficient method for predicting the ...

The Possibility of Changing the Wettability of Material Surface by Adjusting Gravity

open access: yesResearch, 2020
The contact angle, as a vital measured parameter of wettability of material surface, has long been in dispute whether it is affected by gravity. Herein, we measured the advancing and receding contact angles on extremely low contact angle hysteresis ...
