Abstract
The interaction of a powder with vapours or their wettability by liquids are involved in many industrial processes and then needs to be studied by simple and reproducible methods. Two microcalorimetric methods, one for the simultaneous measurement of adsorption isotherm and enthalpy and the other for the determination of wetting or immersion energy, are described. A few examples are given for the adsorption and wetting of powders by water and organic vapours.
