Wetting of Granular and Porous Materials: Theory, Experimental Methods, and Applications

The wetting of a powder or porous material by a liquid is a crucial first step in processes such as dispersion, dissolution, granulation and reconstitution, which are important in fields such as mineral processing, pharmacy and food science. It is also essential for hydrating soil in agriculture. It is important for efficient oil recovery and, in the future, it may help to store CO2 underground.
