Wettability and Wettability Tests

2015
Abstract Wettability is a fundamental property that controls fluid distributions within porous media and has a major impact on capillary behaviour, core electrical measurements, relative permeability behaviour and residual saturations. This chapter describes the sample preparation methods, test equipment, test procedures and data reporting ...

Wettability of MXene films

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2022
One of the highlighted properties of Ti3C2Tx MXene compared to other 2D nanomaterials is its hydrophilicity. However, the broad range of static contact angles of Ti3C2Tx reported in the literature is misleading. To elucidate the experimental values of the static contact angles and get reproducible contact angle data, it is wiser to perform the ...

On wettability of shale rocks

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2016
The low recovery of hydraulic fracturing fluid in unconventional shale reservoirs has been in the centre of attention from both technical and environmental perspectives in the last decade. One explanation for the loss of hydraulic fracturing fluid is fluid uptake by the shale matrix; where capillarity is the dominant process controlling this uptake ...

Wettability of ultrafiltration membranes [PDF]

open access: possible, 2019
Hydrophobic properties of three polymeric ultrafiltration membranes: Cellulose acetate (CA), Polysulfone (PS), Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) were determined by contact angle measurements and their surface free energy evaluation. Advancing and receding contact angles were measured by the sessile-drop method. The contact angles were measured for water

Wettability Quantification - Prediction of Wettability for Australian Formations

International Petroleum Technology Conference, 2011
Abstract As a rock-fluid interaction property, wettability is well recognized to influence the flow in multi-phase systems such as hydrocarbon reservoirs. In the laboratory, wettabilty measurements are made according to certain standard procedures and the results are expressed as indices for comparative purposes ...

Wettability by Ionic Liquids

Small, 2015
Ionic liquids (ILs) have become particularly attractive recently because they have demonstrated themselves to be important construction units in the broad fields of chemistry and materials science, from catalysis and synthesis to analysis and electrochemistry, from functional fluids to clean energy, from nanotechnology to functional materials.

Wettability of PEDOT:PSS films

Soft Matter, 2016
Conducting polymers such as poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) are increasingly used to interface electronics with biology. Their wettability, however, remains poorly understood. We show that the frequently-used sessile drop technique yields results that are strongly dependent on the experimental conditions (measurement ...

Wettability of Heterogeneous Substrates

physica status solidi (a), 2001
Incomplete organic monolayers grafted on silicon wafer are characterized by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) using the Bruggeman effective-medium approximation. The formation of the monolayer, as a condensed liquid (LC*) phase, is investigated. The time evolution of the surface fractions occupied by the different phases allows the determination of a ...

Reversibly switchable wettability

Chem. Soc. Rev., 2010
This critical review outlines the current state-of-the-art research on the reversibly switchable wettability of surface brought about by external stimuli and the exchange of counterions. Chemical composition and surface topography are the two key factors in the wettability of solid substrates.

Wettability and Applications of Nanochannels

Advanced Materials, 2018
AbstractWettability in nanochannels is of great importance for understanding many challenging problems in interface chemistry and fluid mechanics, and presents versatile applications including mass transport, catalysis, chemical reaction, nanofabrication, batteries, and separation.
