Surface and interfacial tensions are fundamental properties governing the behaviour of liquids at interfaces. These tensions are crucial in various scientific, industrial, and engineering applications. Several methods are employed to measure surface and interfacial tensions accurately. Let’s delve into the detailed procedures and techniques for measuring these tensions. Wilhelmy Plate …
Surface Free Energy
Introduction Surface-free energy is crucial in studying materials science and interfacial phenomena. It refers to the excess energy at the surface of a material compared to its bulk. This excess energy arises due to the deviation of surface atoms or molecules from their equilibrium positions and the interactions between these …
Surface and Interfacial Phenomena
 Introduction Surface and interfacial phenomena are fundamental aspects of physical chemistry that deal with the properties and behaviours of interfaces between different phases, particularly focusing on liquids and their interactions with solid, liquid, or gaseous phases. Understanding these phenomena is crucial in various scientific and industrial fields, including chemistry, physics, …
