Size matching effect on Wenzel wetting on fractal surfaces

Materials with fractal structures may show distinct features of wetting. Here we report the characteristics of wetting of liquid caps on fractal surfaces in the Wenzel wetting regime. It shows that the relationship between the apparent and Young’s contact angles is associated with the size-matching...
