Nanoroughness impact on liquid-liquid displacement

The influence of surface nanoroughness on the static and dynamic behavior of a solid-water-dodecane contact line is investigated. Surface roughness is found to affect the substrate static and dynamic wettability for root-mean-square roughnesses below 7 nm. The kinetics of liquid-liquid displacement...
