Membrane wettability is a key property to ensure success of membrane distillation process
The same measurement modes used in bulk rheology are also meaningful in interfacial rheology.
Surface inspection is done to guarantee optimum surface properties for coating and bonding
Regular inspection of the transformer oil quality is important to ensure the operation of the transformer. Several methods are available, but the newly released IEC 62691 standard is based on the interfacial tension measurement between water and the transformer oil.
Soap molecules decrease the adhesion force between the dirt and the substrate leading to less external work e.g. rubbing required to remove the dirt.
Surface tension plays an important role in Li-ion battery slurry optimization.
The wetting characteristics of the electrode material play a pivotal role in both the manufacturing and performance of batteries.
Surface tension plays an important role in the electroplating solution.
Hydrophobic surface properties are needed in contact with the food product while hydrophilicity is needed when printing on food packaging.
