Wetting and evaporation of sessile droplets are ubiquitous in nature and of importance to
many industrial and everyday processes. While most of the research on sessile droplets has …

This paper provides a comprehensive review of published literatures concerning the fluid
mechanics and heat transfer mechanisms of liquid drop impact on a heated wall. The review …

Droplet impact behaviours are widely applied in a variety of domains including self-cleaning,
painting and coating, corrosion of turbine blades and aircraft, separation and oil repellency …

Wettability is a tendency for a liquid to spread on a solid substrate and is generally
measured in terms of the angle (contact angle) between the tangent drawn at the triple point …

Attempts at depositing uniform films of nanoparticles by drop-drying have been frustrated by
the “coffee-stain” effect due to convective macroscopic flow into the contact line. Here, we …

Surface coatings and patterning technologies are essential for various physicochemical
applications. In this Letter, we describe key parameters to achieve uniform particle coatings …

Evaporating liquid droplets are omnipresent in nature and technology, such as in inkjet
printing, coating, deposition of materials, medical diagnostics, agriculture, the food industry …

The Greek aperitif Ouzo is not only famous for its specific anise-flavoured taste, but also for
its ability to turn from a transparent miscible liquid to a milky-white coloured emulsion when …

In the evaporation of microlitre liquid droplets, the accepted view is that surface tension
dominates and the effect of gravity is negligible. We report, through the first use of rotating …

We extended a mathematical model for the drying of sessile droplets, based on the
lubrication approximation, to binary mixture droplets. This extension is relevant for eg inkjet …
