The purpose of this work is to evaluate the solderahility and characteristics of solder joints. Bridge defect of solder joint was examined in natural atmosphere and $N_2$ condition. Consequently, wettability was excellent for each of Sn-Pb plated Cu specimen, Sn plated Cu specimen, and Cu polished in $N_2$ condition. The wetting time in $N_2$ condition was shorter than that of natural atmosphere condition, showing the decreasing values of about 0.2~0.45 seconds. The max. wetting force under the $N_2$ condition was more increasing that of natural atmosphere condition, showing the increasing values of about 1.8~2.8 N. With the result of wetting balance test, the wetting time ($t_2$) and wetting farce according to increasing amount of $N_2$ from 10 1/min to 30 1/min, the wetting time ($t_2$) was reduced about 0.25 second and wetting force was increased about 2.3 N. In non-cleaning flux, when $N_2$ gas is applied, it is compensated to decrease of wettability. In the case of using the $N_2$ gas, the wettability was improved. The reason for improving wettability is due to preventing the formation of dross. The generation rate of bridge in $N_2$ condition decreased than that of natural atmosphere, and when the specimen had a fine pitch, the rate of bridge defects was considerably decreased in $N_2$ condition, showing the decreasing rate of 25~75%.

In the present work, surface wetting effect on spread-splash regime and transition criterion of the water and ethanol droplets impacting an unheated dry wall has been experimentally investigated. The droplet was directed on a polished STS plate and a glass slide, and the impinging behavior was visualized and recorded using a CCD camera. Droplet diameter and velocity approaching the wall were measured as well. The critical Sommerfeld number representing the spread-splash boundary for the ethanol droplet impinging on the substrates turned out to be smaller compared to that for the water droplet impinging on the substrates with the surface roughness condition remained unchanged. The shift of the transition boundary is considered to be due to the effect of the surface wettability represented by static contact angle and surface tension of droplet.

Interfacial properties and microfailure degradation mechanisms of the bioabsorbable composites for implant materials were investigated using micromechanical technique and measurement of surface wettability. As hydrolysis time increased, the tensile strength, the modulus and the elongation of poly(ester-amide) (PEA) and bioactive glass fibers decreased, whereas those of chitosan fiber almost did not change. Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) between bioactive glass fiber and poly-L-lactide (PLLA) was much higher than PEA or chitosan fiber/PLLA systems using dual matrix composite (DMC) specimen. The decreasing rate of IFSS was the fastest in bioactive glass fiber/PLLA composites whereas that of chitosan fiber/PLLA composites was the slowest. Work of adhesion, $W_a$ between bioactive glass fiber and PLLA was the highest, and the wettability results were consistent with the IFSS. Interfacial properties and microfailure degradation mechanisms can be important factors to control bioabsorbable composite performance.

The three types of surfactants such as nonylphenoxy poly(ethylene) ethanol homologues, caster oil poly(ethylene) ethanol homologues, and sodium perfluoroalkyl carboxylates are used to improve the wettability of rubber impression material. Among the surfactants, the usage of sodium perfluoroalkyl carboxylates containing fluoro group resulted in the lowest surface energy of impression material and the result gave the positive effect on the wettability of rubber impression material to teeth. Also, the anti-foaming agents were used to reduce or remove the hydrogen gas generating on the impression material by reaction. In the case of rubber impression material containing sodium perfluoroalkyl carboxylate as a surfactant, it was found that the tear strength of rubber impression material increased over 3 N/mm with the addition of anti-forming agent. Therefore, the anti-foaming agent could contribute to the mechanical property of rubber impression material without the change of surface property.

In this study, the petroleum sulfonate(PS) was synthesized from pyolyzed fuel oil by sulfonation reaction with sulfuric acid. The PS synthesized had surfactant behaviors relating to the interfacial properties such as surface tension, surface adsorption, and wetting, etc. These interfacial properties were affected by the sulfonation ratio in the synthesis. As the sulfonation ratio increased, the surface tension of the PS aqueous solution decreased. However, when the ratio was too high, the surface tension was increased due to the extremely higher value of hydrophilicity of PS. At the optimum sulfonation ratio, the PS had a good wettability on the cement particles and a good fluidity of the cement mortar with a high adsorption.

Wettability is important to enhance not only CHF but also nucleate boiling heat transfer, as shown by the results of different kinds of boiling experiments. In this regard, an excellent boiling performance (a high CHF and heat transfer performance) could be achieved in the case of pool boiling by some favorable surface modifications that can satisfy the optimized wettability condition. To determine the optimized boiling condition, we design special heaters to examine how two materials, which have different wettabilities (e.g., hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials), affect the boiling phenomena. The special heaters have hydrophobic dots on a hydrophilic surface. The contact angle of the hydrophobic surface is $120^{\circ}$ to water at the room temperature. The contact angle of the hydrophilic surface is $60^{\circ}$ at same conditions. Experiments involving micro hydrophobic dots and two types of milli hydrophobic dots are performed, and the results are compared with a reference surface.
