It may be a rain drop on a leaf or soup on a spoon. It is also seen in how an ink, adhesive or coating spreads on a film. Wetting, in simple terms, is the ability of a liquid to spread across the Surface of a solid to produce a uniform, continuous Surface . How a solid is wetted by a liquid is measured by the Surface Tension of the liquid relative to the Surface Tension of the solid.
High surface tension liquids have more difficulty wetting the surface of solids than low surface tension liquids. Waterborne inks and coatings have higher surface tensions
