Abstract
The error analysis in the determination of interfacial tension and contact angle using sphere tensiometry was fulfilled using the total differential a nalysis. The average error in interfacial tension for all three methods (th e maximum force point method, two points method (F-0 and H-0/R) and process curve method) is smaller than 0.05 mN/m and average error in contact angle is smaller than 0.9 degrees.
