From: Interaction of surfactants with Prunus laurocerasus leaf surfaces: time-dependent recovery of wetting contact angles depends on physico-chemical properties of surfactants

Fig. 4

Time-dependent wetting contact angle measurements of deionized water on fully dehydrated and dead Prunus leaf surfaces. Surfactant coverages of leaf surfaces with C12E4 and Brij L4 were 1 µg cm−2. Wetting contact angles were measured every hour for 8 h after the sprayed surfactant solutions had dried off. Wetting contact angles of deionized water on fully dehydrated and dead Prunus leaf surfaces represent controls (dotted black line) of untreated dead Prunus leaf surfaces. Data points represent means with standard deviations (n = 4)
