The study of the science of Surface Chemistry
began more than 400 hundred years ago with scientists and
mathematicians like Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton , Laplace
and Thomas Young doing pioneering work in explaining the behavior
of surface tension, capillary action, wetting and interfacial
tensions.
Interfacial processes are an important part
of our day to day modern life. Surfactant behavior in a detergent
solution, cosmetics industry, paints and varnishes, semiconductor
and plastics industries, biotechnology and dental sciences,
all depend on the science and understanding of surface tension.
Data Physics, Germany, designs and manufactures
state-of-art instruments and systems for the study of this
science of surface tensiometry.
