Tests included how the coatings affected the 'wettability' of the cheese, and how much water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide passed through, either in or out. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Detergents contain surfactants to increase the wettability of the fabrics to be cleaned, builders and boosters of all sorts to increase cleaning power, anti-redeposition agents that keep dirt suspended in the wash water and prevent it from resettling on the clothes, and a variety of other chemical agents. ❋ CHERYL MENDELSON (2005)
Surface energy is a measure of the wettability of a surface. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Other features of the technology include: improved wettability on component surface; it eliminates steam pockets; it avoids the formation of soft spots; and it provides flexibility of quenching speed. ❋ Unknown (2010)
One per cent to five per cent solutions of Safe Quench 569 improve the wettability on the component surface, thereby imparting a more uniform quench and preventing soft spotting. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Responsive polymer materials can adapt to surrounding environments, regulate transport of ions and molecules, change wettability and adhesion of different species on external stimuli, or convert chemical and biochemical signals into optical, electrical, thermal and mechanical signals, and vice versa. ❋ Martien A. Cohen Stuart (2010)
Contact angles and wettability were examined using small droplets placed on a hydrophobic surface (Teflon tape or ®Nescofilm), photographed side-on using a digital camera. ❋ Rhona E. McDonald Et Al. (2009)
This description of flow separation successfully captures the observed dependence on the various experimental parameters - wettability, flow velocity, solid surface edge curvature. ❋ Unknown (2009)
It is especially challenging for researchers to disperse and stabilize nanoparticles in molten metals (or melts) because most melts have a large surface-to-volume ratio and are unable to maintain contact with the solid nanoparticle surfaces (a quality known as poor wettability). ❋ Unknown (2009)
“Previous studies have shown that a number of factors affect [dribbling], such as the radius of curvature of the teapot lip, the speed of the flow and the “wettability” of the teapot material. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Among the secondary programs being considered are infill well development in known producing areas of the fields, drilling strategies addressing "reservoir wettability" not previously used by the original Operator, shallow gas plays in the fields, drilling deeper oil and gas zones that are productive in neighboring areas but which have never been drilled at Poplar, examination of the optimal development approach for the Bakken shales, and examining the suitability of certain zones to CO2 or other tertiary flooding programs.
"This unforeseen coupling is rationalised in terms of a novel hydro-capillary adhesion framework, which couples inertial flows to surface wettability effects. ❋ Unknown (2009)
