Wetting by Liquid Metals—Application in Materials Processing: The Contribution of the Grenoble Group
The wettability of ceramics by liquid metals is discussed from both the fundamental point of view and the point of view of applications. The role of interfacial reactions (simple dissolution of the solid in the liquid or formation of a layer of a new ...

Wetting films and wetting [PDF]
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 ...

Transforming Auxetic Metamaterials into Superhydrophobic Surfaces
Superhydrophobic materials are often inspired by nature, whereas metamaterials are engineered to have properties not usually occurring naturally. In both, the key to their unique properties is structure. Here, it is shown that a negative Poisson's ratio (
