Understanding the Wetting and Water-Induced Dewetting Behaviors of Bitumen on Rough Aggregate Surfaces

Zepeng Fan et al.

Summary: The study aims to reveal how the mineralogy and topography of aggregate surfaces affect the wetting and water-induced dewetting of bitumen and provides guidelines for materials design in pavement engineering. The results show that complete wetting in air and complete dewetting in water are thermodynamically favorable processes. Furthermore, rough aggregate surfaces are beneficial for force-induced interfacial cracking resistance.

Viscous liquid-liquid wetting and dewetting of textured surfaces

Xiaoyi Hu et al.

Summary: The spreading and receding behavior of small water droplets immersed in viscous oils on grid-patterned surfaces were experimentally investigated. It was found that droplets in partial Cassie state on planar microfluidic grids could capture oil patches that further evolved into trapped oil droplets. The natural retraction velocity of thin water films was examined based on external phase velocity, and regime maps of trapped droplets were delineated based on control parameters.
