This volume chronicles the proceedings of the 5th International
Symposium on Contact Angle, Wettability and Adhesion, Toronto,
Canada, June 2006. Wettability is of pivotal importance in many and
varied arenas, ranging from mundane to micro-and nanofluidics to
lithography to biomedical. It should be underscored that in the
last years there has been burgeoning interest in replicating the
so-called "Lotus Leaf Effect" to create superhydrophobic surfaces.
This volume contains a total of 19 papers covering many facets of
contact angle, wettability, and adhesion. All manuscripts were
rigorously peer-reviewed and revised and edited before inclusion in
this book. Concomitantly, this volume represents an archival
publication of the highest standard. This book (5th volume in the
series) is divided into three parts: Part 1 - Contact Angle
Measurements and Solid Surface Free Energy; Part 2 - Relevance of
Wetting in Cleaning and Adhesion; and Part 3 - Superhydrophobic
Surfaces. The topics covered include fundamental aspects of contact
angle and its measurement, solidification contact angles of
micro-droplets, microscopic wettability of wood call walls, dynamic
vapor-liquid interfacial tension, surface free energy of polymeric
materials, surface cleanliness evaluation from wettability
measurements, wettability parameters affecting surface cleanability
of stainless steel and textiles, wetting and adhesion in fibrous
materials, wettability and adhesion of coatings, adhesion of
hydrophobizing agents, modulation of surface properties of
polymers, graft efficiency and adhesion, relevance of interfacial
free energy in cell adhesion, various approaches to create
superhydrophobic surfaces, and adsorption of surfactants on
hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces.
