Abstract

If a rough surface is put in contact with a wetting liquid, the roughness may be spontaneously invaded depending on the surface pattern and the wetting properties of the liquid. Here, we study the conditions for observing such an imbibition and present practical achievements where the wetting properties of the surface can be predicted and tuned by the design of a solid texture. The contact angle of a drop on such a surface (where solid and liquid coexist) is discussed. Finally, the dynamics of the liquid film is found to obey a diffusive-type law, as in the case of porous wicking.

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.
