33. The term "autophobic" or "autophobing" was first coined by Zisman to describe the wetting behavior of pure liquids on solid surfaces that they should wet well, but which they instead wet more poorly due to an adsorbed layer of the pure liquids vapor on the solid surface. The phrase has since been extended to surfactant solutions on hydrophilic surfaces.
34. In personal communication, S. Garoff has stated that the 5 min pause was to allow sufficient time for the autophilic effect to bring surfactant to a distance of 10 μm from the contact line, allowing imaging.
