Wettability and Spreading Behavior of Sn–Ti Alloys on Si3N4

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate the wetting behavior and interfacial reactions of Sn-Ti alloys, which has been widely applied to join ceramics with metals, on Si3N4 substrates. The isothermal wetting process of Sn-xTi alloys (x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.

Dendritic Pattern Formation and Contact Line Forces during Dewetting of Dilute Polymer Solutions on a Hydrophobic Surface

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2022
The micro-scale morphology of the receding contact line of dilute polyethylene oxide solution drops (c ∼ 100 ppm) after impact and inertial spreading on a fluorinated hydrophobic surface is investigated.

Wetting films and wetting [PDF]

open access: yesRevue de Physique Appliquée, 1988
Macroscopic approach to the wetting phenomena, based on the isotherms of disjoining pressure of wetting films in equilibrium with concave menisci or drops, allows one to calculate the contact angles for different liquids and solid substrates. The results of calculations are presented using the theory of long-range surface forces, and their agreement ...

Metastable wetting [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2011
Consider a droplet of liquid on top of a grooved substrate. The wetting or not of a groove implies the crossing of a potential barrier as the interface has to distort, to hit the bottom of the groove. We start with computing the free energies of the dry and wet states in the context of a simple thermodynamical model before switching to a random ...

A thin rivulet of perfectly wetting fluid subject to a longitudinal surface shear stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The lubrication approximation is used to obtain a complete description of the steady unidirectional flow of a thin rivulet of perfectly wetting fluid on an inclined substrate subject to a prescribed uniform longitudinal surface shear stress.

Site‐Specific Wetting of Iron Nanocubes by Gold Atoms in Gas‐Phase Synthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2019
A key challenge in nanotechnology is the rational design of multicomponent materials that beat the properties of their elemental counterparts. At the same time, when considering the material composition of such hybrid nanostructures and the fabrication ...

The Effects of Adjuvants on the Wetting and Deposition of Insecticide Solutions on Hydrophobic Wheat Leaves

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Pesticide droplet deposition determines the efficacy of pesticide solution and is a critical process in pesticide application. Adding spray adjuvants can improve droplet deposition to a certain extent, but there are currently many types of adjuvants with
