Wetting of soap bubbles on topographic surfaces
The derived predictions imply that the relationship between the static contact angle for bubbles on a flat homogeneous surface and on a composite surface, has the same form as the Cassie-Baxter equation for a droplet. The experimental results for the measured static contact angle for both bubble volumes on the varying surfaces had good agreement with the predicted trends.
