Make: Kyowa Interface Science
Model: DMs-401
- Capabilities
Measuring range: contact angle: 0.1 to 180°, surface/interfacial tension: 0.1 to 100mN/m
Resolution: contact angle: 0.1°, surface/interfacial tension: 0.1mN/m
Accuracy: contact angle: 0.2°, surface/interfacial tension: 0.2mN/m
Camera system: USB2.0 CMOS camera: 60fps at 640×480 pixels
Optical system: Focus: manual focus with 3-step zoom
field of view: 5.3×4.0mm, 9.6×7.2mm, 13.6×10.2mm ±6%
Measuring methods : contact angle: sessile drop (static and dynamic)
surface/interfacial tension: pendant drop (static and dynamic)
- Automatic recognition of droplet deposition
- Live image display and droplet volume monitoring
- Fine adjustable stage in z-axis for gentle deposition of droplets without distortion
- Adjustable level of the body and stage
- Droplet calibration standard for standard view, bearing one full circle for calibration and three droplet silhouettes of 5°, 60°, and 108° for periodic inspection of measurement accuracy
- Applications
This technique is used to measure the hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of a surface through the value of the contact angle.
- Wettability of different surfaces including metals, ceramics, plastic, glass, Nanomaterials etc.,
