Durian, Douglas JFranck, Carl2023-05-232023-05-231987-11-012017-10-10https://repository.upenn.edu/handle/20.500.14332/43379Measurements are presented of the state of wetting of a binary liquid mixture on heavily silylated glass, which are believed to probe a new region of the wetting phase diagram. We find unusual temperature dependence and the first experimental evidence of a possible "partial drying" transition recently predicted by Ebner and Saam for the case of strong short-range substrate-liquid forces opposed by a weak long-range force.© 1987 American Physical Society.
