Study Notes
Contact Angle Significance
- A low contact angle between a solid and a drop of water indicates good wettability.
- Good wettability typically correlates with strong adhesion properties.
Gypsum Product Types
- Principal constituent of Gypsum Product Type II is calcium sulfate hemihydrate.
- Type I gypsum product also primarily consists of calcium sulfate hemihydrate but with different processing.
Common Names of Gypsum Products
- The type of gypsum product associated with the common name 'model plaster' is Type III gypsum.
- 'Die stone' refers to the Type IV gypsum product, known for its high strength and precision.
Adhesion Facilitation
- Areas of low contact angles on a graph typically represent conditions of good adhesion.
- A rough surface texture improves mechanical interlocking and adhesive bonding.
