Popis: | Adhesion of droplets to solid surfaces at low temperatures is crucial for antifogging and antifreezing, etc. So far, most reports on adhesion measurements have been carried out in air-liquid-solid systems, but it remains difficult to precisely investigate the adhesion at low temperatures due to the uncontrollable condensation. On the basis of the liquid-liquid-solid system, a new method to measure the adhesion of water droplets at low temperatures was developed and employed. Moreover, the reported method could be viable in other liquid-liquid-solid systems with wider temperature window; thus, it will find applications in broad fields such as crude oil recovery, ore-dressing, and transfer printing. |
