Abstract
The dynamic contact line plays a key role in various fields of interfacial physics, including bioprinting, nano-scale printing, three-dimensional printing, biomaterials, tissue engineering, smart materials, flexible printed electronics, biomedicine, and healthcare. However, there is still a lack of thorough physical understanding of its real behavior in numerous complex problems in nature and technology. The dynamic contact line exhibits a complex conformation in real-life fluid dynamics problems. Therefore, this review presents two main long-standing models that describe the physics of the dynamic contact line: hydrodynamics theory and molecular kinetics theory. Next, the role of the dynamic contact line in current advanced technologies is discussed. Finally, this review discusses future research directions to enhance the power of current physical models of the dynamic contact line.
