Impregnation of plant fibre reinforcements by a molten polymer involves many phenomena still poorly understood , related to the solid morphology and its surface chemistry, but also to the temperature effect on liquid properties and solid/liquid interactions. The present work focuses on the temperature effect on forced dynamic wetting, using the Wilhelmy method and two model materials: a cellulosic film and two totally wetting paraffin oils. The results show that the dynamic contact angle vs. the capillary number (Ca) plot appears as a master curve. This curve is split in two domains. The domain associated with large Ca (Ca > 10 ^-3 ) is well described by the hydrodynamic approach. The domain with Ca < 10^-3 corresponds to wetting processes operating on a smaller scale, which are more sensitive to the physico-chemical heterogeneities of the substrate. This study addresses the mechanisms governing the capillary pressure, void formation and interface generation during composite manufacturing.
