摘要
Low-rate dynamic contact angles of eight liquids on an inert (non-polar) FC-722 surface and a non-inert (polar) poly(propene-alt-N-methylmaleimide) copolymer are reported using two different contact angle methods: axisymmetric drop shape analysis (ADSA) and an automated polynomial fit (APF) scheme. The latter technique was found to be more sensitive to minute surface heterogeneity and/or roughness of the surface. For the non-inert solid-liquid systems, very complex contact angle responses were observed with both methods. If one omits these inconclusive contact angle measurements, the values of gamma(1v) cos theta change smoothly with gamma(1v) for these polymers, independent of which of the two methods is used. When comparing with previously studied maleimide copolymer surfaces, a consistent change in the wettability was observed as the length of the side chains decreases from hexyl to methyl groups.
