Hysteresis effect of contact angle has an important impact on liquid bridges between sphere particles. This effect is not limited to increasing liquid volume of fixed particles. The hysteresis effect of contact angle is expressed by fixed liquid volume while the two sphere particles are in relative movement. The hysteresis effect of contact angle on the liquid bridge is also significant. In this paper, the hysteresis effect of contact angle on capillary forces of liquid bridges is analyzed when the two sphere particles are in relative movement. Results indicate that contact angle hysteresis effects on capillary force are significant.

This investigation of morphology-wetting links was performed using a biomimetic approach. Three natural leaves’ surfaces were studied: two bamboo varieties and Ginkgo Biloba. Multiscale surface topographies were analyzed by SEM observations, FFT, and Gaussian filtering. A PDMS replicating protocol of natural surfaces was proposed in order to study the purely morphological contribution to wetting. High static contact angles, close to 135∘, were measured on PDMS replicated surfaces. Compared to flat PDMS, the increase in static contact angle due to purely morphological contribution was around 20∘. Such an increase in contact angle was obtained despite loss of the nanometric scale during the replication process. Moreover, a significant decrease of the hysteresis contact angle was measured on PDMS replicas. The value of the contact angle hysteresis moved from 40∘ for flat PDMS to less than 10∘ for textured replicated surfaces. The wetting behavior of multiscale textured surfaces was then studied in the frame of the Wenzel and Cassie–Baxter models. Whereas the classical laws made it possible to describe the wetting behavior of the ginkgo biloba replications, a hierarchical model was developed to depict the wetting behavior of both bamboo species.
