Abstract
- Atomic force microscope enables the measurement of adhesion energies between rough solids.
- Adhesion energy between solid surfaces depends on their wetting behavior toward the fluid.
- The Hiller number describes the probability of particle adhesion.
- Poor wetting of particles with the surrounding fluid increases filtration efficiency.
