Effect of particle size on the measurement of the apparent contact angle in sand of varying wettability under air-dried conditions
Changes in the wettability of soil are known to affect several processes such as infiltration and the shear strength of soil. In this study, the wettability of a medium to fine sand was chemically modified by using different concentrations of dimethyldichlorosilane (DMDCS). The sessile drop method (...
