Wetting and Wetting Transitions on Copper-Based Super-Hydrophobic Surfaces

Shirtcliffe, N. J., McHale, G., Newton, M. I., Perry, C. C.·2005·Langmuir

Abstract

Rough and patterned copper surfaces were produced using etching and, separately, using electrodeposition. In both of these approaches the roughness can be varied in a controlled manner and, when hydrophobized, these surfaces show contact angles that increase with increasing roughness to above 160 degrees . We show transitions from a Wenzel mode, whereby the liquid follows the contours of the copper surface, to a Cassie-Baxter mode, whereby the liquid bridges between features on the surface. Measured contact angles on etched samples could be modeled quantitatively to within a few degrees by the Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter equations. The contact angle hysteresis on these surfaces initially increased and then decreased as the contact angle increased. The maximum occurred at a surface area where the equilibrium contact angle would suggest that a substantial proportion of the surface area was bridged.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
