Abstract: Abstract In many cases for the droplet of an organic liquid deposited onto the aqueous phase, initial spreading of a droplet is followed by its contraction into a lens. The equilibrium situation will correspond to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0956792521000267
Abstract: We consider patterns formed in a two-dimensional thin film on a planar substrate with a Derjaguin disjoining pressure and periodic wettability stripes. We rigorously clarify some of the results obtained numerically by Honisch et al.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.1c02726
Abstract: The disjoining pressure of water was estimated from wicking experiments in 1D silicon dioxide nanochannels of heights of 59, 87, 124, and 1015 nm. The disjoining pressure was found to be as high as ∼1.5… read more here.
