The effect of diameter of rods or fibers on contact angle was studied in a vertical rod configuration. A contact angle measuring device described in the previous paper was optimized for the measurement of small-diameter fibers. It was shown that contact angles of water and hexadecane on nylon 6 monofilaments and glass rods increased with decrease of diameter below a critical diameter, which varied from one system to another. Beyond the critical value, contact angle of the liquid on the vertical glass rod reached to an equilibrium value which is equal to the unique value of the contact angle of the liquid drop on the horizontal glass plate.
