Surface Characterization

Surface Characterization is the systematic analysis of the physical, chemical, and structural properties of a material's outermost layer to determine its composition, topography, energy, and reactivity, distinguishing it from bulk characterization by focusing exclusively on interface-specific attributes relevant to performance and interaction in applications such as dental materials.
