Researchers at the University of Konstanz have developed a gentle, contact-free method to collect liquids and remove them from microscopic surface structures. The method uses vapor condensation to ...

Physicists at the University of Liège have succeeded in sculpting the surface of water by exploiting surface tension. Using 3D printing of closely spaced spines, they have combined menisci to create ...

In its most basic form, surface tension is the tendency of liquids to bead up rather than spread out because they are more attracted to themselves (cohesion) than they are attracted to other things, ...
