Abstract
The electron bombardment/pendant drop technique for determination of values of surface tension of liquid metals is described and the basic physical disadvantages are enumerated. The method is recommended only for reactive and high melting point metals and then only where other methods have proved inapplicable. Values of surface tension, at the melting point, for 14 materials are quoted; those of 1294 dyn/cm for uranium, 1402 and 1880 dyn/cm for pure and commercial titanium and 1827 dyn/cm for niobium being of interest, in view of scarcity of published data.
