Adhesion forces and contact angles of water strider legs
This study investigated the adhesion (pull-off) force and contact angles of a water strider's leg. During hydrostatic experiments, the adhesion force was found to be 2 dyn. The image of a cross section of a live leg contacted with a deformed water surface provided the contact angle of 168.8 deg...
