Something as commonplace as a drop of liquid on a surface may seem simple to understand. But the behaviour of this droplet, particularly if it spreads over the surface to form a film, has immense technological importance. "Wetting" can, for example, affect the growth of crucial film layers during the manufacture of semiconductor devices.

Turning autophobic wetting on biomimetic surfaces into complete wetting by wetting additives
Soft Matter, 2020Autophobicity or pseudo partial wetting, a phenomenon of a liquid not spreading on its own monolayer, is characterized by an energy barrier that prevents the growth of a wetting film beyond the monolayer thickness, which additionally may have an impact on the conditioning performance of films.

Tackling membrane wetting is an on-going challenge for large-scale applications of membrane distillation (MD). Herein, composite Janus MD membranes comprising an ultrathin dense hydrophilic layer are developed by layer-by-layer assembling cationic ...

Urinary incontinence is one of the most frequent problems seen in pediatric urology. Although there can be serious structural problems that produce wetting, most of the children seen will have nonstructural causes for their incontinence. A systematic approach and persistence with therapy should result in resolution of the problem in most instances.

Annual Review of Materials Research, 2008
Wetting of single-crystal surfaces of metallic solids and oxides by liquid metals and alloys is anisotropic because of the anisotropy of the energies of solid surfaces and of their interfaces with liquids. To provide a basis for a discussion of wetting anisotropy, we review first the literature on surface and interfacial energies in metal-metal and ...
