Abstract
Ultra high‐speed motion picture photography is used to measure the decay and frequency of drops of liquid in air and of air cavities in liquids. Consequent to the belief that surface active agents induce dynamic interfacial properties, a very clean system is used, and experiments are performed with triple distilled water, tap water, and known aqueous solutions of ionic and nonionic surfactants. Experimental results yield good qualitative agreement with the theory. The theoretical and experimental studies show the system to be a new and promising technique for the quantitative evaluation of the various interfacial viscous and elastic properties.
