Abstract
The measurements of the SAW attenuation in different liquids are presented. A specific immersion SAW sensor has been used for the liquid testing. The dependencies of the SAW attenuation as a function of: a) the viscosity; b) the degree of the dissociation; and c) a molecular structural arrangement, is discussed.
