Table 5.

Total surface free energy (γ_total) and their components according to van Oss-Chaudhury-Good theory: dispersive component (γ^LW), acid-base component (γ^AB), acidic component (γ_s⁻), basic component (γ_s⁺). All values are in mJ/m². Percentages of contribution of γ^LW and γ^AB to γ_total are shown in parenthesis. Contact angle with water (θ_w).
