Adhesives - Wettability - Determination by measurement of contact angle and surface free energy of solid surface

active, Most Current
Organization: CEN
Publication Date: 1 January 2013
Status: active
Page Count: 16
ICS Code (Adhesives): 83.180
scope:

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the surface free energy of a solid surface by measuring the contact angle of a liquid wetting the solid surface. It allows the prediction of the ability of a particular adhesive to wet a particular adherend. It can be used to characterise surfaces intended for pretreatment, coating or bonding.

NOTE 1 In order to determine the surface free energy, the method of measuring the static contact angle is used in combination with a statistical interpretation.

NOTE 2 The measurement results are influenced by mechanical surface roughness and chemical homogeneity.
