Size‐Dependent Contact Angles of Microscopic Droplets on Ultra‐Smooth Silanized Surfaces Probed by Atomic Force Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Wetting is vital in many technologies, but remains hard to predict due to complex phase interactions. Young's law predicts macroscale wetting on ideal surfaces, while line tension theory is limited to nanoscale droplets. Here, using AFM, the scale gap is bridged by focusing on microscopic droplets and predicting their contact angle on real surfaces ...
