Addressing the Apparent Controversies Between the Contact Angle-Based Models for Estimation of Surface Free Energy: A Critical Review

The most popular contact angle (CA)-based approaches for determination of solid surface free energy (SFE) are considered: (i) single liquid methods, mainly of Neumann and Chibowski, (ii) the multiple liquids approach of Owens–Wendt–Rabel–Kaelble (OWRK), and (iii) van Oss-Chaudhury–Good (vOCG) acid–b...
