From the force applied on an object / sample deeped or in contact with the surface of a liquid, the scientist can easily measures the energy of interaction between a liquid and a surface.
For example, this energy of interaction measured can be converted in Surface tension / Interfacial tension of liquids thanks to very easy equation

Interfacial tension Liquid - Air
Interfacial tension Liquid-Liquid
Wettability of powder
Wetting hysteresis
Density of liquid
CMC
To get this measure:
1/ - Hang a clean lame made of Platinum in a liquid below a weighing sensor.
2/ - Move a beaker up up to deep the lame in the liquid
3/ - Move the beaker down while a survey of the force applied to the lame is recorded
4/ - The force with the highest value can be converted in the Surface tension of the liquid
