Adaptive Wetting—Adaptation in Wetting [PDF]
Langmuir, 2018 Many surfaces reversibly change their structure and interfacial energy upon being in contact with a liquid. Such surfaces adapt to a specific liquid. We propose the first order kinetic model to describe dynamic contact angles of such adaptive surfaces. The model is general and does not refer to a particular adaptation process.

Grain Boundary Wetting by the Second Solid Phase: 20 Years of History
Metals, 2023 Grain boundaries (GBs) can be wetted by a second phase. This phase can be not only liquid (or melted), but it can also be solid. GB wetting can be incomplete (partial) or complete.

High temperature wettability and oxidation behavior of TiN, Ti–Al–N and Ti–Si–N PVD film
Materials Research Express, 2020 In aluminium cutting and die casting, tools are exposed to Built UP Edge (BUE) and Built Up Layer (BUL) and erosion due to the frequent contact of the tool surface to the aluminum alloy, to oxidation due to high temperatures.

Miniaturized Wet-Wet Differential Pressure Sensor
2022 IEEE Sensors, 2022 We report a miniaturized wet-wet differential pressure sensor with applications in pressure and flow sensing in water networks and other harsh environments. The device is similar in concept to a conventional wet-wet differential pressure sensor in that the sensing element is protected from the external environment by oil-filled cavities closed off by ...
