The dynamic wetting of Cu–Ag binary alloys of different concentrations on rigid Ni surfaces is considered via molecular dynamics. The statics of wetting are studied with regard to the alloy concentration. The dynamic data (speed v, dynamic contact angle θ) are compared to the Molecular-Kinetic model by a fitting procedure. To validate the fittings, the microscopic features of the mechanism are studied. The main parameter of this model (the equilibrium jump frequency K0) is calculated independently in the simulation. The two values, fitted and measured, are compatible, which extends the validity of the MKT theory for alloys. We also observe in our simulations Marangoni effects and Ag demixing in the formation of an adsorbed layer. Our results also seem to indicate that there is an optimum Cu–Ag binary alloy concentration for increasing the speed of wetting.
