abstract = {Polar and dispersion surface free energy (SFE) can be
determined with the Owens-Wendt method. Thereby, contact
angles (CAs) of at least two liquids with known surface
tension (ST) components are measured. The ST components can
either be determined through experiment or drawn from
literature. However, it is important to know how big the
difference is between SFE component values that have been
calculated with experimentally-determined ST values or
values derived from literature. In this study, STs of
different test liquids were analyzed by Pendant Drop method
and the components by CA measurement on a non-polar surface.
CAs on different polymer surfaces were measured to calculate
SFE components with the Owens-Wendt method. The calculations
conducted were either based on experimentally-determined ST
parts or different sets of values found in the literature.
The findings of the survey show that, depending on the set
of literature values used, the SFE results deviate
significantly from the values obtained from experiment.
Expressing this deviation in figures, in extreme cases the
polar part differs for some polymers by $-100\%$ to
$+100\%,$ with the dispersion component spanning $-50\%$ to
$+43\%.$ In comparison, the expected relative uncertainties
exhibited by the experimentally-determined ST values are
about $15\%$ for the polar and approximately $5\%$ for the
dispersion SFE part. Hence, the results show that the SFE
uncertainty can be reduced significantly by means of
analyzing the ST parts experimentally.},
