contact angle

Can Contact Angle Be Modified?

Yes, the contact angle can be modified through various surface treatments:
Chemical Functionalization: Adding or removing specific functional groups can change the surface energy and wettability.
Plasma Treatment: Exposing the surface to plasma can introduce new functional groups or remove contaminants.
Coating: Applying a thin layer of a different material can alter the surface properties.
Nano-structuring: Creating nano-scale features can enhance specific interactions at the surface, modifying the contact angle.
