2、 adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of surfacetension and interfaci
3、al tension of a variety of liquid materials,including but not restricted to paints,solvents,and solutions ofsurface-active agents,as defined in Terminology D459.Fourmethods are covered as follows:Method ASurface Tension by du Noy ring.Method BInterfacial Tension by du Noy ring.Method CSurface Tensio

5、two-phase solutions.Morethan one solute component may be present,including solutecomponents that are not in themselves surface-active.1.4 Method C is applicable to surface active liquids and,unlike du Noy ring,no buoyancy corrections are needed andresults are not affected by moderate viscosities(1-1
6、0 Pa-sec)ofthe liquid.It is the recommended method for use with paintsand resin solutions.1.5 Method D is applicable to two-phase solutions andmixtures.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.7 This standard does no
