Biosurfactants have similar functionality as their chemical counterparts, but they are biological in nature.
The blog post describes what is surface tension and why is surface tension important in many industrial processes
This difference in wettability is key in determining how each membrane is used.
Drop volume can have an effect on contact angles on certain surfaces.
Surface pressure—area isotherm can be defined as a measurement at a constant temperature of surface pressure, as a function of the available area for each molecule in Langmuir film.
A Langmuir-Blodgett film can be defined as one or more monolayers of material deposited from a liquid surface onto a solid substrate.
Receding contact angle is the lowest possible contact angle on a given surface. Receding angle is measured on previously wetted surface.
Advancing contact angle is the highest possible contact angle measured on a previously unwetted solid surface.
