The Leidenfrost Effect occurs when a liquid comes in contact with a surface significantly hotter than that liquid's boiling point. On contact the liquid forms a cushion of vapor that insulates it from the surface, slowing the evaporation process and causing the liquid to become very mobile as there is little friction.
