Abstract
The question of the mechanism of action and the place of application of capillary forces has been discussed. It has been shown that the conventional notions of the character of capillary forces are often contradictory. A molecular-kinetic approach has been employed to determine the places of application of capillary forces and the mechanism of their action.
