In this paper, a new method of determining the surface tension of the solid material that a microporous membrane is made from is introduced. The method is based on the well known determination of the so-called contact angle that is formed on the solid/liquid/gaseous three phase line. A nonideal stat

## Experiments with different organic liquids have been conducted to study the drop size dependence of the contact angles on a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) surface of 1-octadecanethiol (HS(CH 2 ) 17 CH 3 ) on gold. Low-rate dynamic advancing contact angles were measured for sessile drops in vapo
The surface free energy per unit area of a solid, β₯ S , is a fundamental property of materials and determines their surface and interfacial behavior in processes like wetting and adhesion. In this study the β₯ S of a series of styrene-acrylonitrile random copolymers is evaluated. Three different appr
