Contact angles are dependent upon three interfacial energies: γsolid/liquid, γsolid/vapour, and γliquid/vapour according to Young’s relation. Solid, liquid and vapour phases in this work are respectively amorphous silicates, water droplets and oil media. Due to the three variables, contact angles could be insufficient but necessary to study the surface modification and water adsorption on the surfaces in situ. Surfactants, Ca(AOT)2 added in the oil phase can modify the surface via a cation bridging and hence the surface tension, γsolid/liquid. Added electrolytes in water droplets can vary the water adsorption on the modified surfaces.
