There have been many experiments that have determined the wetting behavior of liquids on low-energy solid surfaces. These experiments show that, in general, the contact angle, theta, measured through the liquid, increases with increasing liquid-vapor surface tension, sigmalv. Surprisingly, in experi
## Abstract With the introduction of an additional interfacial tension (or hysteresis tension) to describe the effect of the surficial roughness on the liquidβsolid contact angle hysteresis, both contact angle and its hysteresis were derived from mechanical equilibrium and were perfectly consistent
