I am looking for data of interfacial energies between some steels and
various other materials. I also need data for the surface energies of
metals and other hard materials.

Anyone who can help?

Thanks in advance

I just got a table of surface energies from 3M. It's buried in a product
selection guide that I can send to you as a pdf file if you wish. Be
forewarned -- the file is 3 or 4 MB, so it's a mail bomb if you're on
dialup.

Here is the data they reported. I hope the formatting comes across well....

Material Surface Energy
[dynes/cm]

Non-plastics
Copper 1103
Aluminium 840
Stainless Steel 700-1100
Tin 526
Glass, porcelain 250-500
Zinc 753
Lead 458


Plastics
Kapton 50
Phenolic 47
Nylon 46
Alkyd enamel 45
Polyester 43
Epoxy paint 43
Ployurethane paint 43
ABS 42
Polycarbonate 42
PVC 39
Noryl 38
Acrylic 38
Polane paint 38
Fiberglass 50
PVA 37
Polystyrene 36
Acetal 36
EVA 33
Polyethylene 31
Polypropylene 29
Tedlar 28
Teflon 18
