vapor tension
1.Using the recently reported data on stainless steel and polypropylene samples as example, we compared the surface-tension coefficient given by the Mises-like law and Amonton-like law. It is found that only the latter possesses always the Wenzel behavior, which claims an increasing of the tension coefficient with surface roughness, as well as total wetting condition, namely receding angle vanishes when the surface-tension coefficients of solid-liquid and solid-vapor become equal.
