A sessile drop is an isolated drop which has been deposited on a solid substrate where the
wetted area is limited by the three-phase contact line and characterized by contact angle …

The wetted area of a sessile droplet on a practical substrate is limited by the three-phase
contact line and characterized by contact angle, contact radius and drop height. Although …

Synthetic superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces were developed after 1990s, and the number of
publications in this field is around 13 500 at present. However, the industrial production of …

We review existing explanations for drop pinning and the origin of the force required to
initiate the sliding of a drop on a solid surface (depinning). Theories that describe these …

It is a great challenge to fabricate a surface with Cassie–Baxter wettability that can be
continuously adjusted from hydrophilicity to superhydrophobicity by changing of geometric …

Evaporation of water droplets deposited on metal and polymer substrates was studied. The
evaporated droplet demonstrates different behavior on weakly pinning (polymer) and …

The freezing of water droplets placed on metallic surfaces and surfaces lubricated with
various silicone oils was studied. The freezing of water droplets placed on inclined and …

Directional transport of liquid droplets is crucial for various applications including water
harvesting, anti-icing, and condensation heat transfer. Here, bouncing of water droplets with …

Nanofluidics have recently attracted significant attention with regard to the development of
new functionalities and applications, and producing new functional devices utilizing …

Rough PDMS surfaces comprising 3 μm hemispherical bumps and cavities with pitches
ranging from 4.5 to 96 μm have been fabricated by photolithographic and molding …
