Opis

This volume contributes to the field of characterization of solid surfaces. The chapters cover the theoretical and experimental aspects of wetting and wettability, liquid–solid interfacial properties, and spreading dynamics. Interesting peculiarities are discussed, such as the phenomena of super-spreading and super-hydrophobicity. The book also deals with specific solid surfaces, such as reactions and wetting of liquid metals at high temperatures, and the interaction between nano-bubbles at solid surface and nano-particles at liquid interfaces. In addition, it includes a chapter on electro-wetting.
