Wettability of glass-bead surface modified by trimethylchlorosilane
Article Abstract:
Research was conducted to examine the relationship between coverage of hydrophobic groups on modified glass bead surfaces and macroscopic characteristics such as dispersion ability and wettability. Glass-bead surfaces modified by trimethylchlorosilane were derived using the chemical reaction between surface silanols and trimethylchlorosilane molecules. Results indicate that the wettability of material was closely related to the bulkiness of the surface coverage and the modifier on the molecular level.

Tailoring wettability change on aligned and patterned carbon nanotube films for selective assembly
Article Abstract:
Numerous studies and experiments are conducted to examine and describe the effects of the process of oxygen reactive ion etching (RIE) on the surface wettability of the aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) films with a particular pattern of alignment. The analysis reveals that the flow rate of oxygen during RIE can change the wettability of the films, which then affects the alignment and pattern of the tube that can be further used in assembling the microphores or quantum dots on the CNT films.

Negative gas-solid adsorption and its influence on wettability
Article Abstract:
An absolute positive adsorption determined for a vapour-solid system of interest to wettability can be a negative surface excess. In the area of critical phenomena, negative gas-solid adsorption is now widely forecast from statistical-mechanical calculations.
