Fluid separation and network deformation in wetting of soft and swollen surfaces

Controlling the wetting of soft materials is of great importance in biological and engineering applications, but its understanding remains incomplete. Here, the wetting ridge of a water drop on a soft polymer network, swollen by a fluid, is studied with increasing degrees of swelling, revealing a gr...
