Influence of contact angle on hysteresis in mercury porosimetry

Journal Article · · J. Colloid Interface Sci.; (United States)
A study of the effect of contact angle in mercury porosimetry has revealed that appropriate adjustments in the angle result in the elimination of intrusion-extrusion hysteresis. When the contact angle is increased for the intrusion curve and decreased for the extrusion curve, the two curves can be brought into coincidence.
