The temperature dependence of the dynamic contact angles (DCAs) of water on a metallic
surface remains unclear, especially under elevated pressures. Here in this work, the …

Hypothesis Phase change slurries (PCS) have emerged as a promising class of oil-in-water
emulsions for energy applications, but stability remains an issue. Pickering phase change …

Hypothesis In terms of the Young's equation, the temperature dependence of liquid-solid
contact angle is affected by the surface material, so the wetting behavior could be tuned by …

We experimentally investigated the evaporation characteristics of a sessile water droplet on
a glass substrate with different surface roughness levels. The influence of five parameters is …

Emulsions have been the subject of extensive research for more than a century and have
found applications in numerous fields. This thesis advances this domain by developing and …
