Description of the project

The aim of the project was to train young scientists (up to 5 years after graduation) in an innovative way in the field of various problems related to wetting processes using the latest research techniques, apparatus and computer simulations, with particular regard to practical systems. The participation of the team from the Department of Interfacial Phenomena UMCS concerns the wetting and electrokinetic properties of lipid films deposited on a solid surface as well as similar tests of other solid surfaces.
