Abstract

Over two hundred years ago BENJAMIN FRANKLIN described to the Royal Society the results of some experiments he had carried out on the spreading of oil films on the pond at Clapham Common in London. He reported that

“…the oil, though not more than a teaspoonful, produced an instant calm over a space several yards square, which spread amazingly, and extended itself until it reached the lee side, making all the quarter of the pond, perhaps half an acre, as smooth as a looking glass”.
