Abstract
Abstract A new design for a dynamic surface balance is described which utilizes a vertical mesh cylinder to alter surface area. The device is described and initial studies have been carried out. Results from DPPC monolayer experiments indicate that force—area isotherms using this device closely agree with results from standard surface balances. The described surface balance has a number of advantages over the Langmuir trough such as preventing leaks in surface films, a wide frequency range and greater accuracy using a Wilhelmy plate.
