✦ Synopsis

A general equation is presented for the determination of the dynamic contact angle of a sample with disc geometry of radius, (r), and thickness, (t). Knowledge of depth of immersion, (d), and the meniscus height above that of the liquid level, (D), are the only other requirements. The use of the equation enables the contact angle across the whole of the sample, and at any one depth, to be determined. (1993 Academic Press, Inc.

Low-rate dynamic contact angles of nine liquids on a poly-(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) polymer are measured by an automated axisymmetric drop shape analysis-profile (ADSA-P). It is found that two liquids dissolved the polymer on contact. From the experimental contact angles of the other seven polar

A liquid foam can be regarded as a single fluid with a characteristic "surface tension". This property is calculated for two-and three-dimensional ordered and disordered foams using a broken bond approach. The contact angle of a foam with a solid or a liquid substrate is also calculated from the ene
