Abstract:
      With the continuous development of modern bionics, the interfacial material with extreme wettability, as a new type of functional material, has become one of the hot topics in the field of material science. Because of its low surface (free) energy and superplasticity in the supercooled liquid region, the amorphous alloys have become one of the ideal materials for preparing the functional surfaces, especially for the superhydrophobic surfaces. In this paper, three different wetting models:Young's model, Wenzel model, and Cassie-Baxter model, were used to systematically discuss the wetting behavior of the amorphous alloy surface, and then the influence of micro-nano structures on the surface of superlyophobic and superlyophilic amorphous alloys were also analyzed. The wettability of solid surface will be greatly changed by the construction of surface structures. With the increase of the surface micro-nano structures geometry size, more and more gas is stored between the liquid and the surface, which shows the contact angle (CA) increases obviously. With the geometry size continuing to increase, the direct contact between the liquid and the rough surface reduces CA. In addition, the effect of surface energy and liquid surface tension on the wettability of amorphous alloys were further discussed. The greater the surface energy of the solid, the smaller CA of the liquid on the surface. For liquid, the greater the surface tension, the greater the CA on the solid surface. Moreover, the current research difficulties in the preparation technology, durability, etc. of the extreme wettability for amorphous alloy surfaces were proposed. The future research direction and the application prospect of amorphous alloys surface with the extreme wettability were also discussed.
