Wetting and spreading of viscous droplets : a critical assessment of fluid and surface properties
The thesis examines the effects of various parameters on droplet spreading dynamics. A range of PDMS oils with viscosities from 9.9 – 12710 mPa·s were selected and spread on silicon wafers, and the spreading of the droplets were recorded on a pendant drop tensiometer. The droplet radius over time wa...
