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.
Wettability is pivotal in pharmaceutical dosage form manufacturing as well as in drug efficacy.
Micellar water is a clear, water-like liquid that contain one or several different types of surfactants.
Understanding the wettability of membranes is essential for optimizing these processes and achieving desired separation outcomes.
