Wetting transitions in polydisperse fluids | Matteo Buzzacchi

6 Sep 2006 | Subject: | Statistical Mechanics; Soft Condensed Matter | Abstract: | The properties of the coexisting bulk gas and liquid phases of a polydisperse fluid depend not only on the prevailing temperature, but also on the overall parent density. As a result, a polydisperse fluid near a wall will exhibit density-driven wetting transitions inside the coexistence region. We propose a likely topology for the wetting phase diagram, which we test using Monte Carlo simulations of a model polydisperse fluid at an attractive wall, tracing the wetting line inside the cloud curve and identifying the relationship to prewetting. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0609118 | Other source: | [GID 369543] pmid17026051 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
