Surfactant-mediated wetting and spreading are ubiquitous. Understanding of these
phenomena in-depth allows precise tailoring of wetting performance which can contribute to …

Surfactants are broadly used to improve wetting properties of aqueous formulations. The
improvement is achieved by essential reduction of liquid/air and solid/liquid interfacial …

Surfactant-enhanced spreading of water-based formulations over low-energy surfaces has
attracted considerable interest in scientific and industrial communities because of its …

Surfactants are invaluable in a number of agricultural applications in products such as
pesticides and herbicides. In these products, surfactants are very often used in conjunction …

In this paper, we comparatively investigated the wetting performance of aqueous surfactant
solutions in a wide range of concentrations, including conventional ionic surfactants (CTAB …

Wetting and spreading are familiar phenomena in nature and commonly observed in our
daily life, and of great significance for basic scientific researches as well as providing …

Strategies to promote or control droplet spreading on solid surfaces is important to many
industrial and biological processes. The manipulation of surface tension and contact angle …

Interest in wetting dynamics processes has immensely increased during the past 10–15
years. In many industrial and medical applications, some strategies to control drop …

Wettability is a tendency for a liquid to spread on a solid substrate and is generally
measured in terms of the angle (contact angle) between the tangent drawn at the triple point …

Wetting and spreading processes which involve surfactant solutions are widely used in
numerous industrial and practical applications nowadays. The performance of different non …
