Temperature-dependent studies of liquid surface tensions and works of adhesion for an eicosane surface

The surface tensions of water, glycerol, formamide, methylene iodide, 1-bromonaphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, benzaldehyde, and hydrazine hydrate have been determined over the temperature range 5 to 30°C; contact angle measurements of these liquids on an eicosane surface, over a similar temperature...

Description
Summary:The surface tensions of water, glycerol, formamide, methylene iodide, 1-bromonaphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, benzaldehyde, and hydrazine hydrate have been determined over the temperature range 5 to 30°C; contact angle measurements of these liquids on an eicosane surface, over a similar temperature range, have also been determined. Polar and dispersion contributions to the surface tensions of the liquids have been determined and compared, where possible, with standard literature values. Values of enthalpy and entropy of adhesion of the liquids for the eicosane surface, as a function of temperature, appear to show a correlation with the temperature dependence of the dispersion force contribution to the surface tensions of the liquids.
