Abstract
Air film curvature ahead of the contact line drives fast-spreading dynamics during droplet impact and spreading on a smooth surface. The fast-spreading process could lead to wetting failure and bubble entrapment. Reducing the surface tension of the impacting drop increases the critical capillary number threshold for wetting failure and suppresses the subsequent bubble entrapment.
