The Cassie equation: How it is meant to be used

AJB Milne, A Amirfazli - Advances in colloid and interface science, 2012 - Elsevier
A review of literature shows that the majority of papers cite a potentially incorrect form of the
Cassie and Cassie–Baxter equations to interpret or predict contact angle data. We show that …
