A contact Angle meter for reliable and repeatable analysis of wettability and adhesion in research, development, quality and industrial applications

     Dyne Testing, an Intertronics brand, offers Attension Theta Flex from Biolin Scientific, a contact Angle meter for reliable and repeatable analysis of wettability and adhesion in research, development, quality and industrial applications. The device is equipped with OneAttension software, a comprehensive suite that includes all contact Angle measurement modes, an easy-to-use interface and free, unlimited licensing and upgrades.

     The device is a premium optical tensiometer created for advanced wettability research and provides the flexibility required for diverse or demanding research requirements. It can measure surface and interfacial tension between fluids, contact angles between solids and liquids, and analyze surface free energy values - all measurements available in one instrument. The fully functional, modern and award-winning design is modular, and you can configure it as needed and extend it when needed. Its high-end imaging, coupled with sophisticated analytical algorithms, enables accurate detection and analysis of contact angles and surface free energy.

     The included OneAttension software provides predefined formulations to ensure easy and fast measurement setup. Its free and unlimited license allows the software to be stored on multiple computers, while free upgrades ensure the instrument remains a guarantee for the future.

     "Our Theta optical tensiometers, combined with OneAttension software, provide the most intuitive user interface and high level of functionality for a variety of industrial applications," explains Alison Fox, Dyne Testing brand Manager. "The modular design of the instrument means you can choose the dispensing system, and with an optional motorized sample bench and motorized vertical motion, the Theta Flex can operate in fully automatic mode, placing the droplets in a predetermined position on the substrate and measuring the contact Angle."

     Additional modules allow for further functionality, including a 3D topography module for roughness correction contact Angle measurements and a high pressure chamber for measurements at pressures up to 400 bar and temperatures up to 200 ° C.

     "Understanding surface energy, contact Angle and wettability is very important in both product design and process development. You can save money, and save time, by making the right decisions on substrates and materials, "Fox added.
