Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental testing technology, specifically to a device and method for measuring soil hydrophobicity. Background Technology
[0002] Soil hydrophobicity refers to the incompatibility of the soil surface with water. The presence of soil hydrophobicity is one of the fundamental causes of uneven soil infiltration, leading to finger-like or dominant flows. This results in the spatial separation of water, nutrients, and other solutes, thus affecting plant seed germination, root distribution, and growth, and even influencing the spatial distribution pattern of vegetation. Furthermore, soil hydrophobicity also impacts hydrology and geomorphology, reducing soil infiltration capacity and increasing surface runoff and soil erosion. Therefore, it is necessary to test soil hydrophobicity to determine appropriate remediation measures and eliminate potential risks associated with soil utilization.
[0003] Common methods for testing surface hydrophobicity include measuring surface tension, contact angle, and wettability. The surface tension and contact angle of water droplets on soil are directly proportional to their hydrophobicity, and these measurements require the use of a tensiometer and a contact angle meter. However, hydrophobicity cannot be tested immediately after soil is collected outdoors, and the two methods mentioned above, which use measuring instruments, are more suited for research experiments and not applicable to farmers' own use, thus hindering the widespread management and utilization of soil.
