| 21. | Incorporating this value into the surface energy equation allows for the surface energy to be estimated.
|
| 22. | This was proposed as a way to measure the surface energy of molecules in surface chemistry.
|
| 23. | Incorporating this value into the surface energy equation allows for the surface energy to be estimated.
|
| 24. | The measured crack length determines surface energy \ gamma in relation to a rectangular, beam-shaped specimen.
|
| 25. | This occurs because some surface orientations are more stable than others ( lower surface energy ).
|
| 26. | All materials have an inherent surface energy.
|
| 27. | The surface reflectance of incoming solar radiation is important for the surface energy balance ( SEB ).
|
| 28. | Surface energy can be estimated by contact angle measurements using a version of the Young Laplace equation:
|
| 29. | The Zisman theory is mostly used for low energy surfaces and characterizes only the total surface energy.
|
| 30. | However, this equation cannot be used to determine the surface energy of a solid surface by itself.
