Abstract
⺠Surface wettability is engineered by introducing nanoparticles in the liquid phase. ⺠Different nanoparticles affect surface wettability differently. ⺠Gold particle shows an early-pinning of the triple line during bubble formation. ⺠Alumina particle shows a late-pinning of the triple line during bubble formation. ⺠The variation of solid surface tensions at the triple line shall be responsible.
