Scientists have engineered a simple and inexpensive device that can sort droplets of liquid based solely on the liquids' varying surface tensions. Imagine being able to instantly diagnose diabetes, ...
Phenomena involving surface tension are extremely complex and have applications in our everyday lives, and researchers are tackling the complicated mathematics behind the physics. The effects of ...
The effect of lowered surface tension on the development of L. acidophilus and L. bulgaricus was studied. The surface tension was depressed by applications of four soaps, together with sodium ...
The applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry for the precise characterization of liquid-liquid and liquid-air interfaces include surface science, biomedical applications, thin film coatings, and ...
Physicists at the University of Liège have succeeded in sculpting the surface of water by exploiting surface tension. Using 3D printing of closely spaced spines, they have combined menisci to create ...
In its most basic form, surface tension is the tendency of liquids to bead up rather than spread out because they are more attracted to themselves (cohesion) than they are attracted to other things, ...
Geckos sprint across the surface of water using a combination of body motion and surface tension. The lizard’s technique was revealed by high-speed observations made by Jasmine Nirody at the ...
