Molecular dynamics study of the influence of surfactant structure on surfactant-facilitated spreading of droplets on solid surfaces

The spreading of a partially wetting aqueous drop in air on a hydrophobic surface can be facilitated by the adsorption of surfactants from the drop phase onto the air/aqueous and aqueous/hydrophobic solid interfaces of the drop. At the contact line at which these interfaces meet, conventional surfac...
