The charged end of a detergent molecule attracts water molecules at the surface in an outward direction. This disrupts the way the molecules normally attract at the surface and weakens the surface ...

Inspired by the surface tension properties of water droplets, this design allows the tire to adapt its shape dynamically, much like how a droplet changes when it hits a surface. This airless tire has ...

Additionally, the evaporation process induces internal liquid flows within the droplet, driven by surface tension differences. These flows can transport suspended materials and significantly ...

Therefore a drop of soap solution should be stable on a water surface, the hydrophobic ends of the soap ions in the surface being directed outwards, and we were able last August to produce such ...

The viscosity of aerosol particles governs the rate at which volatile components, including water, equilibrate between ... dynamics observed as oscillations in droplet shape can be used to infer the ...

some 20 dynes per cm. less than the surface tension of water. Bile, and agar and gelatin in nonsolidifying concentration fall within the same range. The effect of various inorganic and organic ...

Planes drop ... water, and other additives. The polymer helps create an aqueous film on the fuel and acts as a protective barrier. The surfactants help reduce surface tension.

Droplet Shape Analyzer – Inkjet (Krüss DSA-inkjet) This instrument allows study of droplets generated by inkjet printer heads. Bubble Pressure Tensiometer (Krüss BP100) This instrument permits ...
