This volume chronicles the proceedings of the International Symposium on Apparent and Microscopic Contact Angles, held in conjunction with the American Chemical Society meeting in Boston, August 24-27, 1998. The symposium provided an opportunity to discuss several controversial issues associated with interfacial phenomena that govern the behaviour of the three-phase systems. This volume contains 28 papers, previously published in three issues of the "Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology". The book is divided into four parts: nanoscopic and molecular effects on contact angles; surface forces and surface free energy; wetting of heterogeneous, rough and curved surfaces; dynamic effects in contact angle measurements. Among the topics covered are: contact line tension measurement; liquid drop surface topography; molecular mechanisms of hydrophobic transitions; stereochemical and conformational aspects of polymer surfaces; determination of acid-base properties of metal oxides and polymers by contact angle measurement; van Oss-Good theory of acid-base surface free energies; AFM measurement of forces; thin liquid films; wettability of flat and curved surfaces; contact angle hysteresis; factors affecting contact angle meassurements; dynamic wetting behaviour; and effect of surfactants on wetting. This proceedings volume should be of value and interest to researchers in the field of contact angles.
