Introduction

Contact angle refers to the tangent line of the gas-liquid interface made at the intersection of gas, liquid and solid, and the tangent angle θ between the tangent line and the solid-liquid junction line on the liquid side, and the contact angle measurement is the main method of surface performance testing today.

The standard contact angle measuring instrument is based on the principle of optical imaging, which measures the surface contact angle, wetting performance, surface tension, surface energy and other properties of the sample surface through image profile analysis.

apply

Contact angle measuring instrument is widely used in various industries, in mobile phone manufacturing, glass manufacturing, surface treatment, material research, chemical industry, semiconductor manufacturing, paint and ink, electronic circuits, textile fibers, medical biology and other fields, contact angle measurement has become an important instrument to evaluate surface properties. (Some test functions need to be completed by purchasing special accessories)

1. The wetting behavior of the liquid on the solid surface, such as spreading, penetration, and absorption, is measured by the droplet method

2. Measurement of the advance angle, backward angle, contact angle hysteresis, rolling angle and dynamic contact angle of the material on the solid surface

3. Continuous real-time research and process recording of absorbing materials, and analysis of contact angle curves with time

4. Contact angle measurement of various special materials, such as powders, curved surfaces, superhydrophobic/superhydrophilic samples

5. Attachment drop method test: Contact angle test of material immersed in liquid

6. The hanging drop method measures the surface interfacial tension and polarity and dispersion components of various liquids
