This paper focuses on the behaviour of a liquid droplet on the surface of a treated solid substrate. We deal with the use of surface tension forces induced by heterogeneous wettability to allow the removal of the droplet. Our main aim is to present a new model able to predict the motion of a droplet of known volume along a wettability gradient taking into account the contact angle hysteresis: a key...
