Dynamic Contact Angle measuring devices and Tensiometer

The dynamic contact angle measuring instruments and tensiometers of the DCAT series are multi-functional instruments for the force-based measurement of various surface and interfacial properties like surface tensions, critical micelle formation concentration, adhesion or surface pressure. A wide range of test bodies and sample holders as well as specific upgrade modules are available for the different measuring methods. Based on a well-established and accepted measuring technique and utilising state-of-the-art weighing technology, the highest precision and reproducibility of the measured results is guaranteed.

Application focus

surface tension and interfacial tension measurements using standardised test bodies like Du Noüy rings or Wilhelmy plates
fully automatic determination of the critical micelle formation concentration (CMC)
dynamic contact angle measurements
density determination for liquids and solids
sedimentation and penetration analysis
surface pressure analysis with a Langmuir Trough
force of adhesion determination
