What Does IFT Stand For?
IFT stands for Interfacial Tension
IFT, or Interfacial Tension, refers to the force existing at the interface between two immiscible phases, such as liquid-liquid or liquid-gas. It plays a critical role in various fields including chemistry, material science, and biology, influencing phenomena such as emulsification, adhesion, and wetting. Understanding IFT is essential for applications in industries like pharmaceuticals, food technology, and petrochemicals, where control over interfacial properties can affect the stability and performance of products.
