What is Wettability and Why is it Important?

Wettability is the ability of a liquid to maintain contact with a solid surface, influenced by the surface energy of the material. This property is critical in applications such as coatings and lubricants. For instance, highly wettable surfaces are beneficial for spreading liquids evenly, while low wettability surfaces can be used to create hydrophobic or superhydrophobic coatings.
