Abstract

The current status of the theories that are required for characterization of solid surfaces by equilibrium contact angles is reviewed. Some important aspects, which are not yet completely understood, are explained and listed as future challenges. The theoretical conclusions are integrated into a methodology and technique for contact angle measurement and interpretation that avoid existing pitfalls.
