Dynamic Contact Angle Tensiometer DCAT11
Dynamic Contact Angle Tensiometer with liquid dosing unit DCAT21
Based on the latest balance technology from Sartorious AG, the DCAT family of dynamic contact angle tensiometers benefit from a combination of maximum precision and the greatest possible stability. It is this balance technology that enables the weight-based determination of contact angle, surface and interfacial tension, critical micelle formation concentration, liquid density, sedimentation and penetration rate and lamella breakpoint (surface elasticity).
Applicable to both solid and liquid samples, the DCAT range provide crucial data for production support, quality control, and R&D purposes across a vast range of application areas; wherever the physical/chemical interaction at a liquid/liquid or liquid/solid interface is of interest.
Medical devices, absorbent powders, single fibres and fibre bundles, surface active agents and detergents and candidate solid substrates for subsequent chemical preparation and/or coating.
