Abstract: | Published data and the author’s own data on the surface energy of hydrophilic oxides, silicates, and hydrophobic adsorbents
based on them are reviewed. The prospects of using the combined Gibbs-Helmholtz-Young equation to obtain data on the surface
pressure, heat of wetting, and wetting contact angle of hydrophilic and hydrophobic adsorbents are demonstrated. These data
are used to estimate the thermodynamic characteristics of the surface and interfacial regions at the boundary between the
materials and water. It is shown that the boundary layers of water close to the hydrophobic surfaces are more ordered while
those close to the hydrophobic surfaces are less ordered than with liquid water.
