Wettability and Contact Time on a Biomimetic Superhydrophobic Surface
Inspired by the array microstructure of natural superhydrophobic surfaces (lotus leaf and cicada wing), an array microstructure was successfully constructed by high speed wire electrical discharge machining (HS-WEDM) on the surfaces of a 7075 aluminum alloy without any chemical treatment. The artificial surfaces had a high apparent contact angle of 153° ± 1° with a contact angle hysteresis less...
متن کاملPreparation, anti-biofouling and drag-reduction properties of a biomimetic shark skin surface
Shark skin surfaces show non-smoothness characteristics due to the presence of a riblet structure. In this study, biomimetic shark skin was prepared by using the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-embedded elastomeric stamping (PEES) method. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the surface microstructure and fine structure of shark skin and biomimetic shark skin. To analyse the hydro...
متن کاملControl of surface wettability via strain engineering
Reversible control of surface wettability has wide applications in lab-on-chip systems, tunable optical lenses, and microfluidic tools. Using a graphene sheet as a sample material and molecular dynamic simulations, we demonstrate that strain engineering can serve as an effective way to control the surface wettability. The contact angles θ of water droplets on a graphene vary from 72.5◦ to 106◦ ...
متن کاملAltering Emulsion Stability with Heterogeneous Surface Wettability
Emulsions-liquid droplets dispersed in another immiscible liquid-are widely used in a broad spectrum of applications, including food, personal care, agrochemical, and pharmaceutical products. Emulsions are also commonly present in natural crude oil, hampering the production and quality of petroleum fuels. The stability of emulsions plays a crucial role in their applications, but controlling the...
متن کاملDroplet Lamella Lift Dynamics and Surface Wettability
Droplet impact on dry, smooth surfaces remains an issue for a variety of important applications such as fuel injection, spray cooling, metallurgy, pesticides and coatings. The mechanisms that initiate splashing are highly complex and differ from those on rough or pre-wetted surfaces. In this work, droplet wettability on a smooth, dry surface is examined to quantitatively evaluate its influence ...
