Applied Surface Thermodynamics

Beschreibung

Surface thermodynamics forms the foundation of any meaningful study of capillarity and wetting phenomena. This second edition offers a comprehensive state-of-the-art treatment of this critical topic. It provides students and researchers with fundamental knowledge and practical guidelines in solving real-world problems related to the measurement and interpretation of interfacial properties. New topics include recent progress in Axisymmetric Drop Shape Analysis (ADSA), image processing methods for drop shape analysis, advanced applications and generalizations of ADSA, recent studies of contact angle hysteresis, contact angles on inert fluoropolymers, and an update on line tension and the drop size dependence of contact angles.
