The influence of the resonance electromagnetic irradiation on the wetting of a solid surface by liquid has been discussed. A simple model of a fluid consisting of two-level atoms, for which changes in their interaction due to a resonance irradiation can be found in the framework of the quantum-mechanical perturbation theory is considered, and the corresponding functional for the grand thermodynamic potential is found. The density functional method is used to calculate the surface tension at the liquid–vapor, solid–liquid, and solid–vapor interfaces, and the Young equation is applied to determine the wetting angle. It is shown that the resonance irradiation can significantly increase the latter parameter.

This work studies the aggregation of an synthetic ultraviolet absorbent, named 2-hydroxy-4-perfluoroheptanoate-benzophenone (HPFHBP), in the interface between two solvents which can not completely dissolve each other. The aggregation is studied by computer simulations based on a dynamic density functional method and mean-field interactions, which are implemented in the MesoDyn module and Blend module of Material Studios. The simulation results show that the synthetic ultraviolet absorbent diffuse to the interface phase and the concentration in the interface phase is greater than it in the solvents phase.
