Abstract
The temperature dependence of advancing and receding contact angles has been determined for tin and its alloys with silicon, aluminum, and iron on the surface of a solidified glass mass. The advancing and receding contact angles of melts containing iron differ from those of melts containing silicon and aluminum. The difference becomes more pronounced in the low-temperature range as the iron content in the melt increases.
