▪ Abstract We discuss the thickness of the liquid layer entrained by a solid drawn out of a bath, focusing on the case where the solid is a fiber or a wire. Slow withdrawals out of a pure or a complex fluid are described as well as quick coatings. We specify the general laws of entrainment and stress the cases where the fiber curvature plays a role. We finally give an overview on the further evolution of the coated film.
