The Wetting State of Water on a Rose Petal

Advanced Materials Interfaces, 2019
The rose petal features surface structures that offer unique wetting properties. A water droplet placed on a rose petal forms a high contact angle but exhibits significant contact angle hysteresis, such that relatively large droplets remain stuck to the ...

Hydrophobicity versus Pore Size: Polymer Coatings to Improve Membrane Wetting Resistance for Membrane Distillation

, 2020
Initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) was used to coat two porous substrates (i.e., hydrophilic cellulose acetate (CA) and hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)) with a crosslinked fluoropolymer to improve membrane wetting resistance.

Wetting or non-wetting liquid?

Physics Education, 2000
What factors determine whether or not a particular liquid will wet a particular surface? Is it possible for a meniscus in a capillary to become convex from concave? What would you have to do to flatten it out? In university courses in physics there is often a lack of example or comment concerning the influence of temperature on the characteristics of ...

Superhydrophobic Shape Memory Polymer Arrays with Switchable Isotropic/Anisotropic Wetting

, 2018
Smart surfaces with tunable wettability have aroused much attention in the past few years. However, to obtain a surface that can reversibly transit between the lotus‐leaf‐like superhydrophobic isotropic and rice‐leaf‐like superhydrophobic anisotropic ...

Wet Oxidation and Catalytic Wet Oxidation

Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2006
This review article explores three major aspects of the wet oxidation (WO) and catalytic wet oxidation (CWO) processes (with the major focus being on WO and CWO, using air or oxygen as an oxidant). These aspects are (a) the fundamental chemistry of WO/CWO; (b) important aspects of catalysts, with regard to the CWO process; and (c) engineering aspects ...

Knife Wetting Device: Wet Celloidin Technique

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1968
IN preparing histological sections using the wet celloidin technique the knife of the sliding microtone, the block being cut, and the sections cut from it must be kept wet with 80% alcohol. The block is kept wet with a steady drip from a dropping bottle.

Why wet feels wet? A neurophysiological model of human cutaneous wetness sensitivity

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2014
Although the ability to sense skin wetness and humidity is critical for behavioral and autonomic adaptations, humans are not provided with specific skin receptors for sensing wetness. It has been proposed that we “learn” to perceive the wetness experienced when the skin is in contact with a wet surface or when sweat is produced through a multisensory ...
