N2 - The wettability of steel and coatings used for tools and screws in polymer processing is often determined at room temperature.However, it has to be taken into account that polymeric materials are processed at higher temperatures. Contact angle measurementsof melted PP, HDPE, PMMA, and PA 6.6 on steel and on TiN, TiAlN, CrN, DLC, and PTFE were performed in this work toinvestigate the wetting behavior under closer-to-processing conditions. The contact angle is dependent on time and the ambientatmosphere. Oxidation and degradation of the polymer melts influence wetting significantly. TiN, TiAlN, CrN, and DLC exhibit arather good wettability, whereas the highest contact angle of the polymer melts was observed with PTFE. Higher roughnesses of thesurfaces lead to an increase in the contact angle. It was also shown that a higher temperature causes a better wetting of the solidsurfaces. VC 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
