Wetting current measures energy needed to pierce oxidized switches. Oxidation adds resistance to circuits, but high humidity can cause unintentional oxidation. Dampening current must be calibrated for proper circuit function. Wetting current is a measurement used in electronics to describe how much energy is required for the circuit to pierce a switch that has been […]
Wetting agents reduce the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to spread more easily on solid surfaces. They can be known as surfactants and contain dispersants and emulsifiers. Wetting agents create micelles, which allow liquids to penetrate solids. They are found in cleaning products and laxatives, and are used in pesticides and paint. A wetting […]
