Capillary flow as the cause of ring stains from dried liquid drops
TL;DR: In this article, the authors ascribe the characteristic pattern of the deposition to a form of capillary flow in which pinning of the contact line of the drying drop ensures that liquid evaporating from the edge is replenished by liquid from the interior.
