ABSTRACT

When a liquid comes into contact with a solid, there are a few processes of interest to analyze. These are

Wetting Adsorption Cleaning

One finds that the wetting characteristics of any solid surface play an important role in all kinds of systems. The next most important step is the process of adsorption of substances on solid surfaces. These phenomena are the crucial steps for all kinds of cleaning processes. Typical systems involved are washing, coatings, adhesion, lubrication, oil recovery, etc.
