18 results about "Contact angle" patented technology

The contact angle is the angle, conventionally measured through the liquid, where a liquid–vapor interface meets a solid surface. It quantifies the wettability of a solid surface by a liquid via the Young equation. A given system of solid, liquid, and vapor at a given temperature and pressure has a unique equilibrium contact angle. However, in practice a dynamic phenomenon of contact angle hysteresis is often observed, ranging from the advancing (maximal) contact angle to the receding (minimal) contact angle. The equilibrium contact is within those values, and can be calculated from them. The equilibrium contact angle reflects the relative strength of the liquid, solid, and vapor molecular interaction.

This invention relates to the technical field of surface lubrication and friction measurement of machinery, and provides an apparatus and method for measuring the energy barrier at the surface solid-liquid interface of a microstructure. [Solution] The apparatus includes a micro-pump, a fixed elbow, a capillary tube, an upper contact surface, a lower contact surface, a droplet, a micro-movement stage, and a high-speed microscope camera. In this method, the micro-pump transports liquid to form a droplet between the upper and lower contact surfaces, the micro-movement stage is used to drag the lower contact surface at a constant speed to slide the droplet, and the high-speed camera monitors the deflection deformation caused by the droplet drag force of the capillary tube, calculates the dynamic drag force, and integrates the drag force-displacement curve to obtain the energy consumed by the droplet to overcome the microstructure. Finally, the solid-liquid interface energy barrier per unit area is obtained, overcoming the limitations of the conventional contact angle method, which cannot measure the dynamic interface energy barrier, and enabling direct and quantitative measurement of the surface solid-liquid interface energy of the microstructure.
