| Abstract | Despite the extensive variety of applications for ultra-hydrophobic surfaces in industry, technology, and biology, due to their wetting characteristics, there has not been considerable attention in the area of dynamics of wetting on ultra-hydrophobic surfaces. In this research, the experimental investigations have been done by applying forced spreading of several polyethylene-glycol/water mixtures in different weight ratios on Teflon plates and ultra-hydrophobic sprayed glass substrates. Hydrodynamics theory and molecular-kinetic theory have been applied to investigate the dynamics of wetting on these substrates. It has been found that the dynamics of receding motion of liquid contact line on ultra-hydrophobic surfaces could be described perfectly with the molecular-kinetic theory. In the case of advancing motion on an ultra-hydrophobic surface, dynamic contact angle is independent of liquid contact line velocity. The advancing and receding motions of liquid contact line on smooth Teflon plates followed molecular-kinetic theory. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
