We have carried out an experimental study of liquid drop impact on superhydrophobic substrates covered by a carpet of chemically coated nano-wires. The micro-structure of the surface is similar to some biological ones (Lotus leaf for example). In this situation the contact angle can then be consider

The nature of the surface forces, acting in the wetting films of pentane, hexane and heptane on water and on aqueous NaCl solutions is discussed. It is shown that an important contribution to the surface forces originates from the low solubility of water in short-chain alkanes. The isotherms of wate
