The third volume in a series dedicated to colloids and interfaces,
Drops and Bubbles in Contact with Solid Surfaces presents an
up-to-date overview of the fundamentals and applications of drops
and bubbles and their interaction with solid surfaces. The chapters
cover the theoretical and experimental aspects of wetting and
wettability, liquid-solid interfacial properties, and spreading
dynamics on different surfaces, including a special section on
polymers. The book examines issues related to interpretation of
contact angle from nano to macro systems. Expert contributors
discuss interesting peculiarities, such as the phenomena of
super-spreading and super-hydrophobicity. They discuss specific
solid surfaces-for example, reactions and wetting of liquid metals
at high temperatures-and the interaction between nano-bubbles at
solid surface and nano-particles at liquid interfaces. The book
also includes a chapter on electro-wetting. Given the range of
topics covered in this volume, the state-of-art content is useful
to readers looking for an introductory overview as well as those
looking for in-depth exploration of material related to the
interaction of fluids with solid surfaces. It is a valuable
contribution to the field of characterization of solid surfaces and
can be used as a working tool or to stimulate further study for
researchers and students.
