-Current methods of studying the rheological properties of interfacial layers at the interfaces of fluids are reviewed. This area of research includes two-dimensional 2D rheology. Regardless of the similarities between the parameters of rheological properties of two-dimensional and bulk (three-dimensional) systems, when measuring surface properties, it is necessary to reformulate the main experimental methods to allow for the different dimensions of surface and bulk characteristics of material. Parameters of shear and dilational (measured upon expansion-compression) properties of interfacial layers are distinguished, and the latter are considered to be independent parameters of a system. The most attention was given to the rotational methods of measuring shear viscosity and the components of the complex 2D elastic modulus, as well as to measuring surface tension upon harmonic changes of the bubble (droplet) surface area, which allows characteristics of the dilational behavior of thin liquid films to be determined. Both groups of methods are widely used in laboratory practice and realized in the form of a number of original and commercial instruments. Dilational measurements of interfacial layers can also be performed with oscillations of a movable barrier on a Langmuir trough. In addition, methods based on the propagation of capillary waves across the surface of a liquid, as well as rarer methods of capillary flow in thin channels forced by either a surface tension gradient or the motion of the interface, are considered.
