Higher impact velocity induced the droplet to spread faster and has a bigger diameter. At high impact velocity, spreading factor cannot be determined due to splashing and droplet break ups. In addition, at 1.5 m/s the phenomenon of splashing was found to be almost absent except on the surface with �square� texture. �Square� surface tends to splash earlier compared to other surfaces and is followed by �triangle�, �curve� and smooth surface. At low impact velocity, the smooth surface has the highest spreading factor and followed by �triangle�, �square� and �curve� surface. © 2014 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. publisher: Trans Tech Publications Ltd date: 2014 type: Article type: PeerReviewed identifier: Bin Ramli, M.S. and Basit, A. and Ku Shaari, K.Z. and Keong, L.K.
