Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

Introduction
The ISO 19403 series specifies optical test methods:
— for the measurement of the contact angle;

— for the determination of the surface free energy of a solid surface, including the polar and dispersive

fractions;

— for the determination of the surface tension of liquids, including the polar and dispersive fractions;

— for the checking of the measurement arrangement with reference materials.

The ISO 19403 series can be applied for the characterization of substrates, coatings and coating

materials.

The applicability can be restricted for liquids with non-Newtonian flow behaviour (see DIN 1342-1 ).

surface. The significance limits can be specified by the user in accordance with standard laboratory methods.

3.1.2
topological homogeneity
uniformity of the macroscopic surface, including evenness and smoothness

Note 1 to entry: The definition regards a purely qualitative assessment of the surface. Regarding the

measurement of the contact angle, a surface is considered chemically and topologically sufficiently homogeneous

if no significant differences of the contact angles can be determined when measuring on several locations on the

surface. The significance limits can be specified by the user in accordance with standard laboratory methods.

3.1.3
interfacial free energy
interfacial tension
energy or tension resulting from intermolecular forces on interfaces

Note 1 to entry: The term interfacial energy pertains to the interaction with solid surfaces and is indicated as

free energy in relation to the surface unit (mJ/m ). The term interfacial tension pertains to the interaction with

liquids and is indicated as force per length unit (mN/m). The respective indices “l” for “liquid” and “s” for “solid”
