Abstract: Wetting of solid surfaces by a liquid is important for many natural and industrial processes, such as printing, painting, and coating. However, a quantitative description of the dynamic receding and advancing contact angle is still debated, in particular for aqueous solutions. One reason for our lack of quantitative understanding is the limited spatial resolution of currently used optical methods. We therefore present a new approach to access the submicroscopic region. We use X-ray phase contrast imaging to measure the dynamic receding contact angle on a moving glass fiber of 17 μm diameter. The fiber was pulled out of a liquid bath, which was filled with a mixture of glycerol and Milli-Q water. The dynamic receding contact angle decreased with increasing contact line velocity for all mixtures. In the holograms, we achieved a resolution of 50 nm/pixel with a spatial error of 450 nm. This spatial error is due to an extended surface region of the fiber and the liquid surface in the holograms. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of X-ray holography as a method to investigate dynamic contact angle phenomena and thereby open pathways to higher spatial and temporal resolution.
