The wettability of molten aluminum droplets on the 3C–SiC surface: Molecular dynamics study

Investigation of Al droplet wetting behavior on highly-oriented SiC

“…The effect of the crystal surface ((110) and (111)) on the wetting characteristics was simulated using classical molecular dynamics. 14 The ndings demonstrate that the contact angle of the (110) system is 97.35°larger than that of the (111) system, which is 107.32°. However, studies on the wettability of Al/SiC ceramic polycrystalline systems have focused on reducing the contact angle of Al/SiC systems by integrating alloying elements with Al or modifying the SiC surface coating.…”

“…1, mostly because of the various SiC substrate types used in these studies. In the case of SiC single crystal, [12][13][14][15][16] Shen et al 15 have demonstrated that the wettability of SiC was inuenced by its surface polarity. The contact angle on the C-terminated surface is smaller than that on the Si-terminated surface of the (0001) crystal plane.…”

Anisotropic Interfacial Force Field for Interfaces of Water with Hexagonal Boron Nitride

“…In addition to experimental investigations, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have emerged as a valuable tool for gaining insights into the wettability of two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and h -BN. − Through MD simulations, researchers have been able to explore and understand the intricate dynamics and behavior of water molecules on these surfaces. However, the accuracy of these simulations relies heavily on the chosen force fields.…”

Feasibility Study on Tribology and Surface Morphology Characterization of Hybrid Composites

“…During the reinforcements, particles are stirred into a liquid processing melt, resulting in less damage and delivering a higher material. This technique integrates the reinforcing particles into the aluminum substrate, resulting in a material with good wettability (4) . Further increasing its temperature decreases extreme wear.…”
