A wetting agent is a surface-active molecule used to reduce the surface tension of water.
The effect of Surface roughness and wettability on biocompatibility of biomaterials and Medical devices.
Thomas Young was a physician and his most remarkable discoveries are related to vision and light rather than the behavior of liquids on surfaces
Laser texturing has gained a lot of interest s due to its superior texturing accuracy, good controllability, and suitability for various materials.
Surface free energy can be considered as the surface tension of a solid. Surface free energy is calculated through the contact angle measurements. By knowing the surface free energy of the solid, one can predict the behavior of any liquid on the surface.
Wilhelmy plate method can be used to measure contact angle.
OWRK is one of the most used surface free energy theories. It divides the interfacial interactions into two parts; polar and dispersive.
Demulsification is a process where emulsions are broken down, most typically by the addition of chemicals.
Emulsions are dispersed systems of two immiscible liquids such as oil and water. Interfacial rheology measurements predict emulsion stability.
