Wetting kinetics of water droplets on substrates with lyophilic nanopillars was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. Early spreading of the droplet is hindered by the nanopillars because of the penetration of the liquid which induce an extra dissipation in the droplet. Droplet spreading is mainly controlled by liquid viscosity and surface tension and not dependent on solid wettability...
The wettability of water droplets on solid substrates with external electric fields is a driving mechanism in many technologies. Here, the wettability of water nano-droplets on Si (100) substrates subjected to a perpendicular electric field was studied using molecular dynamics simulations (MD). The effects of the electric field on the liquid-vapor and solid-liquid interfacial tensions were investigated...
