Langmuir, 2017
Elucidating the intrinsic water wettability of the graphitic surface has increasingly attracted research interests, triggered by the recent finding that the well-established hydrophobicity of graphitic surfaces actually results from airborne hydrocarbon contamination.

Static contact angle hysteresis on smooth, homogeneous solid substrates
Colloid and Polymer Science, 2012A theory of contact angle hysteresis on smooth, homogeneous solid substrates is developed in terms of shape of disjoining/conjoining pressure isotherm and quasi-equilibrium phenomena. It is shown that all contact angles, θ, in the range θ r

A Static Contact Angle Algorithm for Silicone Rubber Aging Experiments
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2013To improve the accuracy of the static contact angle measurement in the silicone rubber aging experiments, a high accurate contact angle algorithm in combination with the circle fitting algorithm and ellipse fitting algorithm is proposed. The influence of the water drop volume and noise on the calculation accuracies of the two algorithms are analyzed ...

Langmuir, 2009
Translationally symmetric topographies can be designed to induce anisotropy of static and dynamic contact angles. The validity of ignoring directionality of topography in contact angle characterization was evaluated using microscale patterned topographies.

Electrically Mediated Static Contact Angle and Hysteresis of Polyelectrolyte Solutions
Langmuir, 2023Manipulating a droplet by electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) is vital in various fields ranging from industrial applications to life sciences. As of now, EWOD research has focused primarily on aqueous electrolytes and ionic liquids. This paper investigates the electrowetting behavior of weak polyelectrolyte solutions containing poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)

Microscopic studies of static and dynamic contact angles
Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, 1993Molecular dynamics simulations are used to test macroscopic theories for static and dynamic contact angles. Young's equation is verified by comparing observed static contact angles to angles calculated from the independently measured surface tensions between phases. Laplace's relation between the interfacial curvature and pressure is also checked. Both
