Abstract
ALTHOUGH the viscosity relations of films are of fundamental importance for an understanding of their structure, it has not in the past been possible, with the surface viscosimeters used, to determine the viscosity of a true film, that is of a monolayer. Two viscosimeters which are sufficiently sensitive are described below, and others are in process of development.
