Spreading of Impacting Water Droplet on Surface with Fixed Microstructure and Different Wetting from Superhydrophilicity to Superhydrophobicity

Spreading of Impacting Water Droplet on Surface with Fixed Microstructure and Different Wetting from Superhydrophilicity to Superhydrophobicity

The spreading of the water droplets falling on surfaces with a contact angle from 0 to 160° was investigated in this work. Superhydrophilicity of the surface is achieved by laser treatment, and hydrophobization is then achieved by applying a fluoropolymer coating of different thicknesses. The chosen...
