Results for tag: "Surface Tension"

Surface Tension is a concept in Civil Engineering that refers to the tendency of a liquid surface to resist an external force. It is caused by the cohesive forces between molecules of the same liquid, and is measured in units of force per unit length. Surface tension is an important factor in the design of structures such as dams, bridges, and buildings, as it affects the flow of water and other liquids. It is also used to calculate the stability of structures, and to determine the strength of materials used in construction. Surface tension is also used in the design of water treatment systems, as it affects the rate of water flow and the efficiency of filtration. It is also used to calculate the stability of water tanks and other structures. Companies in the Surface Tension market include BASF, Dow Chemical, Evonik Industries, and Solvay. These companies produce a range of products, including surfactants, polymers, and other materials used in the construction and water treatment industries. Show Less Read more
