Description
Technical Specification
Media
Contact Angle refers to the tangent line of the gas-liquid interface at the intersection point of gas, liquid, and solid. This tangent line has an Angle between the liquid and the solid-liquid boundary. The measurement of Contact Angle is the main method of surface performance detection nowadays. Standard contact Angle measurement instrument is to use the principle of optical imaging, image contour analysis way to measure the surface contact Angle, wettability, interfacial tension of the table, and surface energy, such as performance, equipment cost-effective, comprehensive functions, and can meet the demand of conventional measurement has been widely used in many colleges and universities institutes and enterprises. As shown in the figure, the contact Angle measuring instrument is mainly composed of five parts:
  • light source
  • injection unit
  • sample table
  • acquisition system
  • analysis software
Contact Angle professional measurement method
  • Sessile drop
  • Lamella method
  • Captive bubble method
  • Wetted fiber
  • Sessle fiber drop
Software
The acquisition system adopts the black and white imported CCD camera, which is stable to shoot, clear and reliable images. The lens is equipped with the industrial-grade imported configuration, with the magnification adjustable from 0.7 to 4.5 times, and the imaging is free from deformation. The analysis software has powerful functions, has an automatic fitting ability, has the most advanced fitting method in the world, and meets the precise fitting of various droplet forms.
  • Dynamic shooting and video quick test data can continuously record the change of test contact Angle, and then the software can automatically batch-fit.
  • The software automatically generates reports
