Reduced ODE models describing coarsening dynamics of droplets in nanometric polymer film interacting on solid substrate in the presence of large slippage at the liquid/solid interface are derived from one-dimensional lubrication equations. In the limiting case of the infinite slip length corresponding to the free suspended films a collision/absorption model then arises and is solved explicitly. The exact collision law is derived. Existence of a threshold at which the collision rates switch from algebraic to exponential ones is shown.
