Abstract

Functional surfaces and interfaces possessing wetting/dewetting properties which change reversibly and repeatably in response to various external stimuli have attracted considerable attention lately because of their great potential in a wide variety of engineering fields, practical applications, and basic research. Different types of these smart surfaces/interfaces, on which chemical compositions and/or surface structures can be arbitrarily controlled by different external stimuli, such as pH, temperature, light, solvent, mechanical stress, electric/magnetic fields and so on, have been successfully prepared by various methods. This chapter will give an introduction to the basic theories of surface wetting/dewetting properties, including static/dynamic contact angles (CAs), CA hysteresis, Young’s, Wenzel’s, and Cassie-Baxter’s equations, and in addition, typical examples and applications of stimuli-responsive wetting/dewetting smart surfaces and interfaces are also described.
