“…Spreading rates decrease when surfaces are too hydrophobic or more hydrophilic than optimal for the specific formulation . Wagner et al found that surfactant donor–acceptor (polar) properties were the overriding determinant of the strength of the surface/liquid interaction. However, evaluation of the hydrophobic character of a surface exclusively by water contact angle measurements is insufficient.…”

The wetting tension-dielectric (WTD) method stands out due to its ability to isolate and quantify leaf surface roughness and polarity. A novel (WTD) roughness correction factor is proposed to improve SFE determination. The strong correlation between leaf polarity and leaf wettability for polar solutions (such as water) makes the WTD method a valuable tool for the evaluation of leaf surface-droplet behaviour and the advancement of agrochemical spray formulation technologies. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.

The surface tensions, wetting tensions, contact angles and solid/liquid interfacial tensions of defined siloxanes as well as those of analogous carbosilanes, polysilanes and neopentyl substituted silanes were determined. The wetting experiments were carried out on a glass plate coated with perfluoroalkyl methacrylate (FC 722®). The siloxanes possess the lowest surface tensions. Due to the presence of oxygen atoms in the siloxane backbone, a donor–acceptor portion (γ+/−lv) of the surface tension of about 1–2 mN/m was determined. The solid/liquid interfacial tension also contains a donor–acceptor portion (γ+/−sl). Its value is almost identical to that of γ+/−lv. The γ+/−sl differences between individual molecules of the same surface tension are responsible for contact angle differences of up to 4°. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
