Energy Determination

<p>Surface free energy measurements of solids are a very important issue in various fields of science. Many functional, chemical and physical properties of a given material depend on its surface free energy. The basic method of the surface free energy determination are the contact angle measurements. There are several empirical methods useful to calculate the surface free energy of solids. They are based on the measurements of the contact angle of liquids with the defined surface tension. The aim of this paper is to examine the significance of the receding contact angle measurements in the determination of surface free energy of solids.</p>

Spray Pyrolysis Deposition

CuSbS2thin films were obtained by spray pyrolysis deposition, using polymeric additives for controlling the surface properties and film’s composition. Ternary crystalline chalcostibite compounds have been obtained without any postdeposition treatments. XRD spectra and IR spectroscopy were used to characterize films composition and interactions between components. Films morphology and surface energy were investigated using AFM microscopy and contact angle measurements. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers strongly influence the composition and film morphology.
