When we talk about “Dynamic Contact Angle” (DCA), there are two quite different subjects that may be addressed:
– Time-Dependent Contact Angle (tDCA)
– Motion-Dependent Contact Angle (mDCA)

Read MoreESSENTIAL TOOLS FOR POLYMER CHARACTERIZATION
Polymer characterization is important in developing new polymers as well as maintaining quality control in manufacturing processes. As such, many characterization techniques should ideally be linked to the desirable properties of the material, hence analytical techniques are typically used to determine molecular structure, molecular mass / chain length, thermal properties and mechanical properties.
